i don't buy the whole "plant tomatoes deep" theory... i tried half of my tomatoes this season at the first leaf nodes and half at the same depth as they were in pots... no difference. nada. i suspect that the tomato just knows exactly how deep it should be, and doesn't need us to say "go deeper."

just cause you CAN plant solanaceae deep (they root easily) doesn't mean you should.

just my two cents.

Thank you, I M Ache.

I appreciate your experience and opinion.

I still would like to know if this is do-able or will it kill the pepper?

Thnx,
