No, not from over wintering plant but from 'new' plants...actually all my chillies have some fruit, though most still small :icon_cheers:
I did start them early indoors and they were already starting to flower under the lights. Once planted in their permanent positions in GH, they just romped away, must have been ready for spreading their roots.
The one I have eaten was Naranga...still green but with plenty of heat already :icon_thumleft:
I have feeling it is going to be good cropping year....

Finally getting courgettes they are very late, I normally start in May.   Been very cold at night here.  Even yesterday the wind was very cold, and the courgettes leaves were drooping.

Finally getting strawberries they are late too, Last year I had a saucepan full for solstice summer party.  First few raspberries.  A nice overwintered head of broccoli popped up from the root.

Also a few mangetout.  Thank goodness for Sainsburys etc or we would be rather hungry.

Hi Goodlife, just like you I have picked my first punnet of the year. They tasted superb well worth all the hard work. Here is a pic of the little beauties.
