THE CHILLIES THREAD 2018

Found this thread on soaking sweet pea seeds...........................
To Soak or Not To Soak? (sweet peas)

 

@Loofah , I gave a Cayenne type chili to my brother last year. He lives not far from you in Horsley. He put it outside on the patio , in a sunny sheltered spot , and was very pleased with the results.
Maybe in sunny Surrey chilies can grow outside ?

 

I managed to salvage a few greenhouse now cleared ready for year two

 

Maybe it’s your tastebuds adapting? I know I am becoming more tolerant of heat.

 

Presume that's a Carolina Reaper , he's just tried

 

I started early this year with the new Trinidad Moruga Scorpions.

After ten days on top of the gas boiler and three days on the window sill.

 

you must be keen to grow that many

 

2 little babies, lemon drop. Just a tester really, but they germinated

 

Good germination rate there MisterQ You should be able to prick out at least 10 nice Chilli plants in 3 to 4 weeks .

 

I am indeed keen, especially for the scorpions. And, I have a cunning plan in mind.

Thanks! I usually wait until there are atleast two pairs of true leaves before I prick them out into small plastic cups.
