Chillies - what are you growing/overwintering?

[Scarlet]

[Jay22]

I can see why...

[Scarlet]

Black Nagas and trinidad scorpions

[cptncrackoff]

Getting quite a bit of horizontal growth on the crosses..

[Scarlet]

Such a show off

[cptncrackoff]

Lol, actually I'm a little concerned about them, do you think that sideways growth will need supporting!?
The stems seem pretty sturdy, I'm thinking about when the branches become heavily laden with large fruits!?

[Scarlet]

That's how they grow. My red manzano is about 3ft wide. I just use loads of string and lots of canes it's not pretty!

I can't remember the site I used in the end but this one gives a good idea Bacterial Soft Rot - Peppers - Ontario CropIPM

I did post a pic on another thread, but here is the majority of infected fruit I picked off before the plants were sent to Coventry

I looked it up yesterday never having heard of it......I'd also had a couple of manky looking peppers just on the one plant and sent a pic to a grower friend who thought blossom end rot. But it was different. It was def soft rot.....I had one on the same plant ...a good size pepper with a small blemish that looked like a hole but wasn't......I opened it to find more damage inside than out which according to the chillilicious site is soft rot .....so I learnt something else....again :-)
