Chillies - what are you growing/overwintering?

[Scarlet]

I would say at least a third of my plants now have fruit forming on them

Me jealous?...Nah!




Well maybe just a little bit

[SusieG]

Next year you won't get those out of the house Susie I had one that filled my bay window and hit the ceiling. It had to be cut back to get it out through the door so that I could get my Christmas tree in

You should've left it where it was, Scarlet and decorated that instead of a xmas tree!!!!
Interesting chilli pepper baubles ....!

These are my biggest cayenne and prairie fire!

Hi all new to forum first year growing some veg etc in the garden and loving it so far.

I picked up some chillie plants from one of the big sheds a few weeks ago,put them in bigger pots(about 12-15cm) and put them In the plastic greenhouses (bought for me by my lovely wife)

Couple of questions if I may as I find out of the things I am growing it's my chillies I am most obsessed with

Should I be thinking of putting them in bigger pots and if so what size also do you think they are doing OK and am I likely to get any chillies from them


Jalapeno.jpg (106.5 KB)
Habanero.jpg (107.1 KB)
Thai dragon.jpg (107.0 KB)
Scotch bonnet.jpg (107.9 KB)

And is it worth me saving seeds from them if I am sucsessful or are they likely to be f1 variety

Cheers in advance

Thai dragon maybe F1 but all others will be ok if they don't get cross pollinated.

Edit: Pot them up when the roots fill the pots.

As Hubbard has said re saving seeds...if you want to save from the Jalepeno, hab and scotch bonnet see post #762 of this thread on how to avoid cross pollinating. Though the scotch bonnet and hab are very slow growing you may Only have a few chillies this year and will have to overwinter them....next year you'll be in for a treat. Both the hab and scotch bonnet are great plants to overwinter.

Hubbard, love the bunny
