  • Chillies, cutting leaves etc

    Hi all

    Got a lovely looking Scotch Bonnet chilli plant. The droopy flowers are coming through really well.

    Anyway, there are a lot of leaves etc round the bottom third of the plant. Should I leave these or get rid?

    I've never pulled a leaf off a chilli; I would leave them.
    Our England is a garden, and such gardens are not made
    By singing-'Oh how beautiful!" and sitting in the shade,
    While better men than we go out and start their working lives
    At grubbing weeds from gravel paths with broken dinner-knives. ~ Rudyard Kipling

        Thanks for the replies folks.

        Haven't touched it at all, thought I'd ask the experts what I should do!!

          Why would you want to pull them off?

            First time for me with Habs and I'm surprised and pleased at how bushy they are. Would never take any leaves off chilli.

              I have thought about it, some chillis get very bushy, and a haircut might give me more room, but have always decided against it
