Picture of greenhouse shelf packed with chilli plants
Some chilli ready for pickling
And some Chilaca fruits..always love the dark green colour they are...
Come on everybody else fess up, you can't just leave it to me and Chris
Scarlet we know you've recently got more chilli's. Ladyslip you turned up with a list of varieties as long as your arm, Ms T I think you're just trying to hide your addiction
Cptcrackoff, susieG don't think you're getting away with not sharing and all of you chilli growing nutters. We ( well I ) want number of varieties, number of plants.
I know I'm not the only one who's got carried away..................I'm not am I ??????
It will make me feel better, maybe a little less ashamed of my lack of will power!
Small scale compared to Rob but:
Chilli: 18 varieties with 57 plants
Pepper: 7 varieties with 19 plants
I dream of a better tomorrow, where chickens can cross the road and not be questioned about their motives....
That's very common, keep your cool! when the next lot start, hand pollinate with a paint brush yo give them a helping hand. Just move the pollen around from one flower to the other.
Yeah, I did that with this lot of flowers but they just fell off after a day or two haha.
I won't panic and do the same again once the next lot of flowers come out, which will be very soon looking at the plant as the flowers are nearly out again. Thanks.
Sp. l didn't realise I was being called to question.......
I'm sorry.......I'm in denial and not prepared for healing hands and cold turkey just yet. I gave away 40+ plants......and probably growing somewhere between 50 and 60 I have no idea how many varieties .....an I'm not fessin up
Just one question to all you wonderful people that are even more nuts about chilli's than me. How big is your greenhouse/ polytunnel? Or do you own a tardis? How do you manage to fit all your chilli's in? Maybe you grow nothing else, which is cheating .
