Lol! But we know you use witchcraft (aka lights!) on yours crichmond!

Its odd we've got about 12 peppers/chillis that were all planted at the same time (planted 2nd Feb some up by the 9th Feb), but the purple jalapeno and the hanoi red came thru 1st (with 3 others) and have been growing faster than the others ever since. (You can see the size difference in the picture above.) It would seem that not all peppers are created equally! Can't think of anything else to account for the big difference - I'll have another read back thru the diary to see if there was any reason.

They haven't had any 'food' other than whats in the compost until the big two were potted on into the black pots and the others just now into the square pots. We've put some 'fresh' bat poo in with the compost. Oh and a couple of times they had a weak seaweed feed in their water.
