It kind of depends upon where you are in Colorado. Living in Loveland (or
the front range in general) the soil has a very high clay content so you
need to mix a lot of peat to get the drainage right. In the mountains,
however, I believe the soil has a fairly high sand content so it needs to be
treated differently. Then again, if you live down near the San Luis Valley
most of your soil problems were solved by god and nature so just sit back
and enjoy!

Hello,
      Looking for some tips on growing peppers in the wonderful state of
Colorado.
This passed season I tried my hand at growing a variety of peppers with
very poor
results. I base my results on the fact I've never tried to grow peppers
before. I'm
open for any help I can get to light my mouth on fire with my own
produce.

Thanks Bill Vaughn-Rookie
