malagus Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 Are you sure the pot is big enough??? Drastic action there. could all end in tears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calm Chris Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 Wilting leaves is a sign of thirst! In a window area, decent pot size 1/2 pint of gods juice (water) at both ends of the day. Feed only once a week and do dilute the feed collectly, per instructions. Mine hasn't grown in leaf size or bush for a month or so, all the growing is on the fruit. I'll be a sad get and photo and post in a while! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mollox Posted August 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 I'll take a snap tonight too....if its still alive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calm Chris Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 Here we are: Chilli's--> Tom's--> The toms are just starting to redden up, there's loads and loads. Just as well I love the things. The chilli's were the wrong sort! I much prefer the firery little ones to the bigger near sausage ones that have been grown this year. Have tried eating one raw, it's still a very hot fruit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malagus Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 a chilli plant sounds like a good addition to my mini orange plant. where can I get them from?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calm Chris Posted August 22, 2005 Report Share Posted August 22, 2005 Most decent garden centres, even a BnQ. Might be best getting one, in Feb- April, when growing season starts. Indoor one, should grow all year, but I'd do a google for growing consitions 1st! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mollox Posted August 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 Ok.... Here it is last weekend in its full, pre-op state of complete chaos.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mollox Posted August 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 That'll be it taller than the light switch from the ground! To be honest you'd struggle to tell the difference between mine and Chri5's Anyway, here it is, looking much smaller after last night's scissorhandery! The good news is....its not dead! I don't want to tempt fate but I might, just might have one bud that is about to flower as opposed to go black and die like the tens of others that have preceded it...I could be very wrong though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calm Chris Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 How odd,the plant looks very healthy, but where's the fruit? Leaves are fresh and green, so no obvious health issues. Maybe it's a "jaffa"? The cycle of growth should be flower, flower shrinks and dies, mini fruit, then fruit growing to adult size. I can't see any flower buds or fruit! Molly- You are welcome to take my baby off for a few days, use as your trump card in the growing comp! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
