I have been coverting these Chilli plants in Waitrose for months! I knew if I waited and kept a careful eye I would eventually get one for a lot less that the £3.50 a plant they were charging. I managed to swoop in at reduction time and grab this fella for a measly 45p. However now I have him home and settled on my dresser in the sunshine I am researching how to care for him and what to make with those lovely chillis.
Any tips from my Green fingered readers?

ReplyDeleteI would pot it on or scrape the top layer of soil off and replace with new stuff as there will be no goodness left in it keep it in a sunny place water often, stake if needed. A weekly feed with tomato fertiliser will help or a top dressing of woodash :) I too bought a plant at the garden centre for 50p and have harvested loads of Tiny fiery hot chillies
