Hi Again!
I’m so glad you’re here to help me grow! Watering me the right way is super important so I can grow big, strong, and full of spicy jalapeños.
Here’s how you can water me:
🌱 Check the soil: Stick your finger in the dirt. If it feels dry, that means I’m thirsty!
🌿 Droopy leaves? That’s another way I tell you I need a drink.
💧 Gentle, please: I like soft, gentle water—just like rain.
🌞 Water the dirt, not my leaves: My roots do all the drinking, so aim for the soil around me.
🌍 In the ground: Keep watering me until you see little puddles form around the soil.
🪴 In a pot: Pour water until you see it dripping out the bottom of my pot. That’s how you know I’ve had enough!
🔥 Hot days: If it’s super hot, I might need an extra drink to stay cool and happy.
Thank you for helping me grow! I couldn’t do it without you.
Your pal,
Hal E. Peño 🌶️
