Jalapeno chilis

[Jeremy Lunn]

Have had it for a few months now and it's starting to look pretty
sturdy (apart from being derooted by the weather a week ago) at about
40cm height. Just wondering if I should let it go to fruit yet or if it
should perhaps be forced to a grow a little more.

Thanks,

Jeremy

I don't think chilli plants get much bigger than that, do they? My jalapenos
fruited here a few years ago, and that would have been the mature height.
