I've got flowers forming to on my aubergine so very exciting stuff hey!

Hmph.  My aubergines have almost given up the ghost and joined my okra plant!  Chillis and peppers are covered in flowers and fruit tho - I take comfort in that.  Still, would like to make mousakka..... :-\

No flowers on my chillies yet!

[emmy1978]

Flowers (and chillies) on the chillies but nothing on the peppers yet.  :(

[manicscousers]

[Tinkie_Bear]

Flowers and peppers on several chilli's, flowers on my sweet peppers, aubies doing nowt :-(

[SnooziSuzi]

my peppers are only about 7" high but I can see a tiny flower bud in the centre of the crown. 

how big are they normally when they start to flower?

[debster]

i have flowers on my chillis just about ready to open but pepper plants not even close to flowering

Ha! ...can I paste this into the runner beans post where mine are pathetic and everyone else's are great?!

I have green peppers almost ready to harvest (Jumbo), lots of chillies about half grown, my aubergines (Mohican) are fruiting well, but the Red Egg variety keeps getting to fruit set point and the flowers and mini fruit drop off.....don't know what I am doing wrong there, all the aubergines are in the same place so I don't know why one variety is OK and the other isn't, but I won't grow those again if they carry on (that will teach them......!) ;D

[MrsKP]

cayennes are just starting to flower now.  nothing on the peppers yet.

Deb my aubies are doing the same - even had some egg size [small egg!] which have gone mouldy & dropped off.
