Good luck.

My new baby's are about 8" high. So I was very surprised to see 3 chilli's on one of them. I'm not going to pick them off though. Just going to let him get on with it and see what happens. Will try get some photos later.

[Ms-T]

Would love to see photos. Can I be nosey and ask where you got them from.

this is AR or AIL ( again not really got a clue )

[Ms-T]

They just need your TLC,and they will romp away...interesting shape chillis.

They won't take long to buck up a bit...even if they don't grow huge you have some great seed saving opportunities.

The crosses are trying..

[Ms-T]

yes..i knew it was going to be a dark flower. looks great I can just see the colour on mine..

[cptncrackoff]

Can't wait to see the flowers!... And hopefully the fruit!

The pretty in purple came good after paintbrush pollinating and keeping them really dry!

[Ms-T]

Sp.....I've pm'd you x

I have also successfully managed to isolate a couple of chillis and am looking to catch a few more......I'm sooooo excited lol. Season is so late I'm looking at some blinkin leafy plants with no signs of flower buds never mind fruits ��.....yet on others I have pods some of which have sprung from nowhere
