Really, not much to worry about. Peppers are self-pollinating. You
can help things out a bit by brushing the flowers gently with your
hand, as is often recommended for tomatoes, or give the flowers a
gentle flick of the finger, to get the pollen from the anthers to
the stamen. --

Thanks very much, Billy and everybody else, better go out and buy a
brush. Graham


no need for that even with these
flowers, just ding them with your
finger a little.
