Hi,
I have overwintered my Jamaican Hot chili plant on a windowsill indoors. Since bringing it in in September it nothing's really happened except all the green fruit on it has ripened to yellow. I was going to wait for them to turn red, but they are starting to go soft now...
Should I harvest the fruit and prune it back in order to encourage new growth as the new season approaches? Or is it fine just left to it's own devices?
I've never grown chillies before, never mind overwintered them, so any advice would be appreciated to get the best out of this plant in it's second year.
Thanks.
