Growing peppers outdoors
Sunday, August 24th, 2008
I have to admit we didn’t grow these from seed, a quite small plant with a few flowers of was bought from our local small garden centre. I wouldn’t usually do this as i prefer to grow things from seed, as that way i know they are not diseased…i.e. club root on bought in Brassicas!
But this plant was 20p….so i obviously just couldn’t resist it. Considering it has been sat on the table outside in the wind and rain for the last two months, in a smallish terracotta pot, it hasn’t done bad.
The peppers are not fully as i expected, they are a little longer and smaller. I’d like them to grow more before i pick them, but i’m worried they will start rotting on the plant soon. Maybe that is the size they get to, and i should just get stuck in!
