Spray the plant with Epsom salts (1 teaspoon dissolved in a spray bottle of warm water (about 4 cups). That gives the pepper plant a boost of magnesium that is required at flowering time to produce fruit.

How to build the perfect raised bed

The next time you have green onions, don't throw away the white ends. Simply submerge them in a glass of water and place them in a sunny window.

I periodically empty out the water, rinse the roots off and give them fresh water.
