    • My pink hab had a big hair cut to encourage some new growth lower down...but there are some flower buds forming.

      • Flowers and buds forming on SPs Dorset naga - but I've been slacking and it needs potting on and a hair cut, so these may be sacrificed.

            • Not grown them before so tried sowing a couple and they seem to be doing Ok, just potted on to larger pots today.
              2x Loco on the left and Trinidad Perfume on the right. I thought I read somewhere that they should be stopped but mine seem to be naturally spreading anyway, do i need to stop them? Loco has flower buds

                Are these overwintered? The ones I sowed a few months ago are nowhere near that stage!

                • Yes it's an overwintered plant -I didn't mean to scare you!!
                  My chillies sown this year are small.

                    I wouldn't stop them. I have in the past and then it slows down fruiting. So I would be prepared for a less shapely plant and let it do its thing.
                    They look great.

                        • White fly I think. Give the whole plant a good wash under the tap. Be gentle but try to wash the leaves. That will reduce numbers. Keep doing it everyday until you can get it outside.

                          • Maybe Spider Mite?
                            If so you can try spraying with soapy water, or a vinegar solution.

                            • Not sure, probably spider mite. If so then spray weekly with SB Invigorator and increase the humidity.

                              • Mine have all been back under the lights or on a windowsill for 2 days. Too wet and windy to be taking them back and forth. They'll be returning to the greenhouse on Monday!
