Hello readers,
i would like to start growing chili [Mexican/Indian ones], but i'm
told that i need heat. i don't have the room for a greenhouse. Any
thoughts on getting round this problem?
Thanks, Michael.



Peppers do thrive in heat, but there are lots of people in the UK
who successfully grow them. The trick seems to be starting them
inside early in the season. Do you have a little space in your
home?

You might peruse this site: http://www.thechileman.org/index.php
It's written by a couple of your countrymen, and has lots of
useful links and information. There's a link on the site he
http://www.thechileman.org/forum.php to a bulletin board that has
lots of UK posters who might be able to give you some very
specific advice.

Good Luck!


Penelope
