But I want to start planting my own food and such. And I don‘t know when the season to start planting
Hi: You can plant peppers and tomatoes by your bay window inside. Be careful about the type of tomatoes you plant inside as they will get too big. Cherry tomatoes or a small German brand tomato works well in a pot inside. Use a good potting soil of vermiculite, and humus. The potting soil is good if it is light weight. A good tip also is when you plant the seeds is to get the soil moist with warm water. This will help the seeds germinate. Green, red, yellow, banana peppers or ornamental peppers should do fine as long as they get enough sunlight and water. You can also plant outside in pots or in the ground. If you are going into spring, the best time is after the last frost. Properly prepare your ground if you are doing a garden. If you are doing them in planters outside your tomatoes can be of a larger variety as you can stake them or cage them. Take a look at my sitemap on my website for ideas on doing different container planting as well as properly planning, prepping and planting a garden. Hope this helps some and good luck to you.

Hi Heather, Gary said he mentioned to you. Drop me an email, I can help you out.
Tomatoes and peppers are usually planted in spring time. You can grow them in your bay window but they usually need quite a bit of sun. I think outside would be best. good luck!
The first thing you need to consider is what direction your bay window faces. South or southeast facing windows are usually good choices for growing winter gardens inside. Choose a determinate variety of tomato. Indeterminates grow and grow and grow and keep growing as long as frost doesn't kill them. Better Boy Bush tomatos are small slicing tomatos and are probably a good choice. When the flowers are in bloom tap the base of the plant to pollinate the flowers as you have no wind or insects available inside. I would suspect you would have better luck with a banana pepper rather than a bell if you are trying to grow a sweet pepper and I would choose one of the smaller chili peppers if you are going hot. Good luck on your winter gardening endeavors.
