saved some seeds last year from a red pepper, and they've taken, not a clue how to grow them, dont know how big or how wide the plant grows, so its just trial and era, if i get some peppers of them, or i dont at the end of day they did'nt cost nothing.

Thanks, can they be grown in pots in the greenhouse ?

Yes, I usually have a couple in pots, you may have to mist them a bit when the flowers are out.

Thanks a million for info, looking forward to seeing them grow now, i'm not a veg grower at all, but have grown tomatoes for a few years, and cucumbers about 2yrs, and i do myself some lettuce leaves find there plenty living on my own, usualy land up giving tomatoes and cucumbers to my sons and daughters.

I'm the same, on my own, so am trying not to grow so much, but inevitably it happens !!

Tell me about it, i've got a couple of friends and they both have allotments, and very often bring me potatoes and veg round in summer.

Thats true :)))

well done Carol, must admit I have never tried growing veg wil watch how yours get on;0)

If i can do it Carole i'm sure you can aswell, not sure if you have left it to late this year as suppose to put seeds in at end of Febuary, if you keep your seed pkts safe you can do them next year, and we can both do them together.

Good luck with them Clarice - I tried growing things once - no good at veg at all - my Mum is though :)) They look healthy anyway :))

Thanks Paul, i always say with plants they have two chances as they can either live or die :)))

They look healthy,Carol,well done..I am only growing salad leaves this year..just not enough space,or anyone to care for them now,if we go away..I do miss growing salad potatoes,though....just the thrill of harvesting as much as eating them..hey ho !

i'm getting in to salad growing but not veg, there again 2 of my friends have allotments ;))

It's lovely to just cut a few leaves as you want them,Carol..those in bags go so horrible,once the bag is opened..and so expensive,just to throw in the compost bin ..!

I agree with you;o)))

Oh, well done on growing these, Carol ... I set 15 seeds from a Sweet Pepper seed pack and only 4 have come up so far! :o(

Another 2 have popped up ... I'm getting like a Mother Hen now ... keep looking to see what's new each day ... :o)

I.m going to pot them on tomorrow and get them in greenhouse as since i took these photos they have really grown, on saying that think i could do with rebubble wrapping the greenhouse first with it being so cold, there again i suppose i could through some fleece over everything at night time.

I hope they grow well for you ... and I agree that it's definitely turned cold again ... :o(

Brilliant. They don't get that big, you will get some off of them.
