  • Advice on neglected rampant bell pepper

    Have a couple of bell peppers in 30cm pots in greenhouse and due to neglect they are a mass of growth, flowers and fruits - some the size of golf balls.

    What's the best plan now? Not sure leaving them be is an option...

    I live in a part of the UK with very mild winters. Please take this into account before thinking "if he is sowing those now...."

    Thinning out the fruits is an option and also removing flowers if you don't want anymore fruit later.

      Why do anything? It's very early in the season. You should get a fantastic harvest. The plant will give up on fruit and flowers it thinks won't come to fruition. Oh, sorry about the not-quite-pun.

        Snoop <pedentry> not sure that fruition ​​, when used about fruit actually is a pun <\pedentry> so you have a forgiveness in hand.

          Give it more root space and it should give bigger fruits.
