Are your chillis still small?

[amandaandherveg]

After viewing Lainey Lous wonderful pics, I'm a bit paranoid. My chillis and peppers are all healthy, but still really titchy. Anyone else have small chillis?

[maytreefrannie]

Yes, me.

They're outside in the little growhouse - I'm thinking of taking one or two (of five) in at night to see if they'll romp like Lainey Lou's in the pictures.

My tallest sown this year is about 6 inches tall, but has it's first flowerbud forming now.


It's not the size, it's the punch it will eventually give you!


My one from last year which was cut right down still has no flowers but quite a few new leaves.

Don't worry, it's still only early May.

Mine are still seeds - none are germinating this year for me

My Chillis are still small and after seeing BarleySugar's Purple Jalapenos I've got a bad case of Chilli Envy. Where are Lainey Lou's pics?

[JimmerG]

Yup - Tiny chilis for me too, maybe 2inches tall, and probably 6 weeks old! But they've been suffering from alternate chilling and frying in my poly grow house outside!!

[Bramble_killer]

mine have about 8 real leaves. i definitely have chilli envy.

I also mixed up all my chillies and sweet peppers that should be fun

[Glutton4...]

Mine are only about 3-5cm tall now, better hurry them up!

One of my mustard Habs is still only an inch tall The biggest plant is probably only 4 or 5 inches. No worries, there's plenty of time yet

4 or 5 inches but growing quite happily

Actually, it was Barley Sugar's photos I'd seen - I can't even get the name right!

But Chilli Envy - yeah, I think I've got it too.

I sowed mine on the 5th of Feb and they are still only 6" tall max!
That's the problem with having a cold house

Hope you don't think I was being a pedant, I honestly thought I'd missed something

Likewise. It's nice not to feel alone...
