Hi From Notts

[christoff]

Hi Everyone,
I was bought a "grow your own chillies" kit for my birthday [back in april] and instead of putting it on the side, forgetting about it, then chucking it away 5 years later.. I actually sowed the little seeds, they came up, they flowered, and now I have a few little green chillies...
I have sort of become obsessed with them... Google ing all sorts of things, and eventually finding this forum.
I plan to keep a few plants over winter, so as to get a good start for next years crop.
Great forum BTW
Chris

Welcome to the vine and the slippery slope that is chilli growing obsession .
There's the odd one or two here with the same obsession ( not me I have it well under control )

Christoff - whilst I always get the details wrong you have to do X number of posts before uploading of photos works - its not really very well explained anywhere - the mods don't even really understand the rules, they just pretend - so keep on posting a few updates and at some point everything will just magically start to work - bit like gardening.

Mods here are lovely, just not all knowing - which might explain the loveliness

Hi and welcome to the vine

Hi Chris welcome. I’m also new to the chilli growing loads of good help and friendly people here.

Like others say lots of things start magically working after a number of posts

[veggiechicken]

My best guess at number of posts is 10-12ish. Does that help?

Yes - probably Admin (who are higher beings on this forum than mods) are sitting around going - "hmm, 10 posts for this one, 12 for that" and "no we won't send any MOMS anything, not that we ever said we would anyway so what is the issue" .
