Title: Pepper bargains
Post by: Sappidis on August 26, 2016, 13:23:36
It's that time of year again when the shops begin to flog their pepper plants. while the plants are in bad shape, theyre often perfect for overwintering

Picked up:
Two jalapeño
Two scotch bonnet
Hot Thai dragon
Hot banana

At B&Q for a total of £2
Also got an aji lemon for 50p at wyvale garden centres.


Don't use the seeds from the peppers, they will almost certainly be crossed. Overwinter, then self pollinate .
I repot mine in 1 gall ice cream tubs I get for free from work.

Great advice!  I think I might do that.
