Title: peppers
Post by: gordonsveg on September 27, 2007, 07:40:57
I have 6 pots of Corno Rosso peppers in my G/H they all have a good crop of fair sized fruit. I have noticed some of them are going black from the tip. Is this due to low temps as its been 40 in the early morning?. I normaly grow them in the garden and cut the last few green.

   Also I have a trough of Dw Run Beans in flower if I put them in the G/H is there any chance of a crop?.
      THANKS

If they are green and going black then this is normal prior to turning red. Mine are doing the same.
I think that your beans will crop in the greenhouse.

First time at peppers this year.  Have had better results from those at lottie than at home in a growbag. I am amazed that I have "shop" size fruits on the plants!  Picked a green one the other day - was about the size of a tennis ball and I was surprised how heavy it was.  Have to say - it is eating well too!  Was looking forward to eating one which was almost all black and was going to go red but a certain brother nicked it ::).
