Chilli plant without chillies
In article ,
VinceG wrote: I have three chilli plants in a large pot. The plants have flowered twice but not produced any chillies. Can I do anything or should I give up and try again with a new plant? What is the soil and air temperature, and how much light do they get? How much water do they get? You may want to scratch in some bone meal around the plants, and hold off on any nitrogen fertilizer. Insects could cross pollinate peppers but since it is winter in the UK, that shouldn't be a problem. In general, these should be self pollinating plants. You may try gently flicking the flowers next time, or gently swab them with a Q-tip, going from flower to flower (if they are all the same type of pepper). -- - Billy "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." - Benito Mussolini. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyE5wjc4XOw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_vN0--mHug |
