Mason Jar Hydroponics: First Try



I have two mason jars set up with tap water, pebbles, and coco coir.

In the first jar I planted a few seeds that I recovered from an old bell pepper rotting away in the fridge.
In the second jar, I planted a few of the same seeds after letting them soak in tap water overnight.
I spritzed both jars with 8 oz. filtered tap water mixed with 1/2 capful of hydrogen peroxide.

I am keeping them in a warm dark place in my room, covered with a clear plastic "cloche" until I see the seed leaves sprout. These are pepper seeds so they take a while to germinate, maybe a 2 weeks or so?
