Chilli Overwintering Update
I posted last week on the progress of the chilies still alive and being kept inside the house.
That was "Inside the House> 3 Purple Jalapeños with lots of leaves on them, 2 Orange Habanero, a Red Manzano (some fruit still on!!), a Lemon Drop and a Hot Scotch"
So, at the weekend I checked on the numerous chilli plants left sitting in the greenhouses and most were at varous stages of expiration😃
Still alive and worth making an effort for are the following:
Hotscotch
Red Habanero
Red Manzano
Lemon drop
Pasilla Bajio
Chilaca
I cut them all back to varying degrees and took all leaves off them. These are all inside a mini blow-away in the greenhouse and I have put bubble wrap on the floor so they are all sitting on that.Weather is forecast to be colder later this week so let's see how they get on😏
Inside the garage upstairs there are a few clinging to life too, Again, I cut them all back and gave them some water. I wrapped the pots with clingfilm too..In the garage we have:
Semaroh (by 2)
Mila's Bulgarian
Antohi Romanian
Anaheim
Calfornian Wonder
We will see how all of the above get on; hopefully some make it through😼
I could bring them inside but as that won't always be an option, this is a bit of a "let's see what happens" trial....
