Hi Everybody,

Last autumn, I had a problem with my capsicums (green
bell peppers.)

being an American I am not too good with metrics, but wouldn't have a
centimetre be 50 milimeters? (or millimetres).

nah, too many. 100 centimetres (cm) in a metre (m) a 1000 millimetres
(mm) in a metre. so that makes ... ummm... er... drags out ruler to

cm's? They just go from mm to m .
