hello!
two days ago I planted some pepper seeds. it is my kind of experiment because I am not sure if it will even sprout. I will tell you if I will see any progress but now I wanted to ask you if you have ever tried to grow a pepper from a seed? photos and stories are welcomed!

Did you plant some viable seeds, or some black peppercorns?
I just checked on wikipedia, which says peppercorns are treated unripe drupes which are cooked briefly
and then dried.

The peppercorn we grind for spice and the one we eat raw or cooked are very different.
Do you want pepper to grind or eat whole.

Do you mean chilli peppers/sweet peppers (Capsicum) or black pepper (Piper)?
Capsicum seeds tend to geminate very easily. They may not come true to the variety from which you gathered the seeds, though.
I have never heard of someone growing Piper from seeds...
