Hello all, my first posting here.


Grateful for any advice about overwintering chilli plants.


Just brought my Scotch Bonnets in and popped them by the windows in the fron
room and kitchen. Hopefully they'll get enough light to stop domancy. If
they drop leaves i'll cut them back and reduce watering.

I've not tried this before but many say that they make good houseplants.
We'll see! They only have to make it through till spring...

Watch out for red spider mite, though.
