Habanero seedling turning yellow from the bottom in fresh compost.
Got these a few days ago in tiny pots and repotted them three or four days back in fresh fine compost (mostly vegetable scraps and grass). I watered them immediately after repotting and not since, the soil is starting to dry up on the surface but still has some wet spots. The plants are in a greenhouse which I open once the temperatures get around 20C and close up during the afternoon to keep as much heat in as possible during the night. The pots have a layer of bark at the bottom (2-3cm) as a drainage layer, then a piece of fabric for separation, and the rest is the compost. What am I doing wrong?
Should I spend my pay check on seeds yes or no thank you
reddit.comAm I increasing my tolerance enough?
I’ve been trying hotter foods recently, but I can’t tell if my progress is stalling or not. I’m just barely tolerating “Thai authentic” Thai food, and just today I tried straight Tabasco Scorpion hot sauce in a spoon and I needed some milk. Hot food has been a challenge since I’ve been a kid, so I’m wondering if my tolerance is naturally low even though I have a “heat tolerant” ethnic background. Any feedback or recommendations is much appreciated.
Yellow Scotch Bonnet?
Ok I saw the post about jamaican yellow mushroom peppers and now I'm paranoid that my beautiful plant is the wrong kind, as if I didn't have enough to worry about. I bought as a seedling along with a ghost pepper seedlings which is growing true to type. What do you think?

Small bugs on my habanero plant?
Not sure what these are or how to get rid of them safely. They look almost like ants, but they're all white and not moving?
Say it with me, JAMAICAN. YELLOW. MUSHROOM. PEPPER.
How do they get away with this?
Separate? Or just embrace the threesome?
I purchased a handful of pepper plants from the store and didn’t realize till I got home that this little fella looks to actually be three little fellas? Not sure what the best course of action would be here. Do I attempt to separate them? Or would that just cause more harm than good in the long run? Feedback appreciated!
I decided to leave it outside the house yesterday as it was getting warm again, but windy. Looks like too windy :( grown from a seed in January, is this the end of the road?
Healthy pepper roots?
Started some Thai chilis from seed and I'm trying to diagnose and issue I'm having. I took out one of the peppers to check the roots for potential root rot. They don't feel mushy, hold together when I pull them and don't smell. They're maybe a little brown? But I think that might just be the dirt. They do reach pretty far down though, is that normal?
The leaves of my plants started turning yellow on the top, and I think that it's because of my new grow light, but wanted to rule out other things too.
Thanks!

Leaf questions on peppers
Habanero, poblano, bell pepper (California orange) leaves. Are these "help me" leaves or "that's just what plants look like" leaves? First year at it, all advice welcome!

TiA!
Dehydrating time
Just started my dehydrator with 30 sugar Rush peach peppers cut into quarters about 145° f for 9 hours approximately rotating every few hours. Looks like my next powder is going to be fish peppers and then lastly my chocolate Trinidad scorpion pepper. I just got my first pepper started on one of four scorpion pepper plants.
Too much sun?
It has been like that for a while. The new leaves look fine but im worried that im doing something wrong.
For context its a habanero plant and im located in germany. I put them outside everytime its sunny here and bring them back inside every evening. We really dont get THAT much sun here and it isnt that strong so could there be another issue?
