Change or modify x axis tick labels in R using ggplot2

Viewed 155805

How can I change the names of my x axis labels in ggplot2? See below:

ggbox <- ggplot(buffer, aes(SampledLUL, SOC)) + geom_boxplot()

ggbox <- ggbox + theme(axis.text.x=element_text(color = "black", size=11, angle=30, vjust=.8, hjust=0.8)) 

ggbox<- ggbox + labs(title = "Land cover Classes") + ylab("SOC (g C/m2/yr)") + xlab("Land cover classes")

The above code creates the following figure: enter image description here

I would like to be able to capitilize the first letter of these classes (i.e Crop, as opposed to crop).

I've tried the code below but not sure where to put it and exactly what function to use. labels = c("Citrus", "Crop", "Cypress Swamp", ..........)

(I'm using windows 7, Rstudio)
