  • Peppers Outside

    I grew about 70 pepper plants in a propagator, and put them out late, the plants grew up, and I have loads of little buds still, look like mini mini peppers, or where the flower would come, I live in the Midlands, is it still too late to get any peppers grow on them, or will the plant eventually just die off without doing anything?

    I'd doubt you could get anything off them now. My chili plants are wilting now in the limited light despite being indoors. It's hibernation time for plants like these.

      I was just reading a thread about over wintering, so I might try digging up maybe 10 of them, and overwintering indoors see if anything comes of them, more as an experiement!!
      I got the seeds free by taking them out of pepper and drying them out, so it hasnt cost me anything, apart from some compost, some time and also some water!!

        Can I disagree with you Ollie?

        I always sow a late batch of chilli peppers in around May for a lateish crop - ever since the first year I grew peppers when we were picking peppers from a plant grown on a balcony in Nottingham...on Christmas day.

        My May sowing of chillis is just bearing fruit now - I repotted them at the weekend and they are in our courtyard and gave them a good feed.

        If they are grown outdoors they are hard enough to keep on growing, what I have found is that if you pick off all the chilis about now and then pop them somewhere warmer than they have been [so a warmer place such as a greenhouse, indoors, mini greenhouse etc] they can get another flush of flowers quite late on in the season and still produce.

        I find this works better with chillis than the larger sweet peppers.

          I stand corrected (said the man in the orthopaedic shoes!)

            Oh ok, do you think its possible I might get any growth then indoors Zazen? or is it more just wishful thinking? Well I guess I have 76 plants to play with, so if 10 of them go indoor and do nothing, they get recycled in the compost, along with the others outside, If not, some in the house may do something, I guess I could have a few different ones as tests, outdoors, in greenhouse, indoors, and see which if any do anything, I guess its not like we are likely to get snow in Nov or Dec, this is UK after all, hahah
