Hi All

I am going to try and grow some peppers this year and noticed that a few
websites say to feed the plant every week or so. Has anyone got any
experience of growing peppers and did they feed them, and if so what did
they find was the best feed.

Any feedback would be appreciated

Usually grow several varieties of pepper, chillies and sweet, and treat them
more or less like tomatoes re. feeding and watering, though I actually use
a mixture of comfrey leaves in liquid, and compost in bags in a waterbutt
to feed.

One odd thing is that sparse watering seems to make for hotter chillies, I
wonder if anyone else has noticed anything like that ???
