"Rich" wrote My chillies are doing ok greenery but the flower appear - rarely and then drop off. What should I be doing many thanks I presume these are in a greenhouse or similar? If so it's liable to be lack of pollination, the insects can't get to the flowers, ours are out on the allotment and we get about 100% flower/fruit. -- Regards Bob Hobden W.of London. UK |

So there you are, keep em warm and give em a lot of direct sunlight, and they do fine out of doors. If you are doing that already, then don't know. Though some varieties are a bit shy and only do well if kept very warm and bright. If you are growing them in a greenhouse, well don't know about that either. |

Do the flowers open before they drop off? Then it may be lack of pollination. I'm not sure whether they need to be cross-pollinated - I never do anything with mine - but you could try making sure that insects have access to the plants, and it might be worth misting with water every day or couple of days. |
