Hi all,
I've currently got 2 chilli plants on a windowsill at home - they are
growing beautifully and are about 2 feet tall. One of them is starting to
form buds that will hopefully be the origin of some lovely fruit in the
months to come.
I'm looking for tips on how to obtain the best crop - numbers and quality
of
fruit. I've read here and there that I should use tomato feed, should
water
them consistently throughout, should starve them of water and then flood
them to increase the heat etc etc. but I'm not too sure exactly which was
to
go..... any help / advice / comments would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

One thing that seems to help is to ensure they are a little root bound.
Seems to force things like chillies and aubergines into fruiting better in
my experience. Given free range in the open soil they all crop very poorly.
So I guess don't pot it on too often.
