hows everyones chilli plants?

[HavercroftHomegrowns]

My plants are about an inch or two high atm and have been in the unheated greenhouse since seed but are going rather slow, leaving them inside wasn't an option though as I have 20 jalapenos and about 30 of other varieties, I have a lot of friends wanting plants lol

Have 4 sitting on kitchen window sill at the moment. Smallest is about 3in high, largest about 7in.

No flowers or chillis yet, can't wait. One looks a little worse off for some reason tho...

All the others look nice an lively. Ideas anyone would be great

Mine are all around the 3" mark at the minute. Two of them have just gone in their final pots, and I'll be potting up the other two later on. Four plants will be ample for me. Haven't decided what's going to sit between the second two in the bedroom window yet. Dwarf pomegranate has pride of place downstairs, but the sills are a lot shallower upstairs

mine are doing OK at the moment and have shown some good growth recently, but my only surviving over wintered scotch bonnet is doing fantastic

Here's my four (pyramid rainbow chilli) basking in the sun yesterday. The sun was hiding behind a bit of clouud this morning so I left them in the south facing windows today. The sun is out now though, and no chillis outside means the table is clear for a can of Bud and a book now I've finished work for the week

Hi there, I'm growing Dorset nagas, scotch bonnet, and jalapeños this year, I seeded the the nagas in February over a radiator to force them up, then grew them in my conservatory which has heating, so they never got cold, the tallest one is 26 inches and the smallest is 19, and they're covered in little nasties ;-) on the other hand my jalapeños are at the best only 13 inches at best, and as yet don't have any flowers? I've added a few photos.....

Have lost pretty purple rainbow chilli, due to over heating in the poly tunnel. Very scorched hot scotch plants. Everything does look on the small side. Was expecting things to start to get taller now. Starting to place plants into the ground in the poly. Just planted the orange and chocolate habaneros into the ground. Will plug in the nagas next, I think.

If you dig them in within the pots, you will be able to lift them easily for overwintering. they will still be fruiting when the first frosts come and they need to be indoors by then

I got these 5 plants in April from a certain website. White Bhut, Moruga Scorpion, 7 Pot Primo, Carolina Reapor and a Monkey Face. The Reapor is finally producing a couple of pods and the rest of the plants are not far off. They have come on pretty good since I got them .

Here's my first ever red Chillie.
Grown them for my brother. Didn't think they would take this long to turn red.

When did you plant the chilli plant? Is it in a greenhouse or similar?

If you overwinter the plant it should start earlier and do better next year, if it survives!

[NatalieCooke]

I planted them indoors about February times. Then planted them in the greenhouse the same time as the Tom's. I'm sure thats what the seed pack said to do. :S

[Scarlet]

What variety is it Natalie?
