and nothing happened since

I didnt tomato feed them as i though
that was for when fruit apperaed

there are some buds on them but they aint doing much

I had planted them a little late

any thoughts

niall


The first time I grew chillis indoors, the flowers started falling off. I
thought it may be because there were no insects to pollinate the flowers, so
I started using a cotton bud, and later a water spray to pollinate them
myself. They then started forming chillis, but unfortunately they ended up
small chilli shaped sweet peppers (due to lack of sunlight in the UK so I am
told).

The chillis I took the seeds from were about 3/4" wide by 3" long. The ones
I grew were about 1/4" wide by 1 1/2" - 2" long and very hot.
