    Hi
    Last year, my peppers were rubbish. They only grew to about 12" and the fruit was sparse and tiny. Normally, they are good. I renewed a lot of the soil and dug in some compost and some farmyard manure( from Garden Centre) Any suggestions? My tomatoes were as good as ever, in the same greenhouse.

    I personally would not use FYM for peppers , they don't need it, just a general mutlipurpose and when when fruits are forming feed with potash. [​IMG]

    Thanks - perhaps it was too rich?
