Sweet peppers - Plant out now?
Hi all,
I'm having varying results with lots of veggies i've started growing inside this year, and my first attempt with many including sweet peppers. They've grown very well, and i've already repotted them once, now they seem to be yellowing a bit and i suspect they need bigger pots again. I didnt notice the packet say greenhouse :( Will i get away with planting them outside now? Or will they die off? I'm down in herts, and they will be planted in a full sun spot.... Thanks! dan -- www.dankeeley.co.uk |

Thanks! dan -- www.dankeeley.co.uk Could be growing a bit soft - overwatering/overfeeding? Too hot? Not enough ventilation? Check those yellow growing tips for aphids. I'd wait a couple of weeks before planting outside. Rod |

The message
from "Dan" contains these words: Will i get away with planting them outside now? Or will they die off? I'm down in herts, and they will be planted in a full sun spot.... They need mote heat than you'll get outside, though you could try big polythene cloches. -- Tony Visit my turntable workshop http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/hi-fi/ |

I'm having varying results with lots of veggies i've started growing inside this year, and my first attempt with many including sweet peppers. Will i get away with planting them outside now? Or will they die off? I too plan to grow a few sweet pepers and Aubergines this year. Some will go in the greenhouse, but the excess is going in the Allotment, under Polythene tunnels. |

I didnt notice the packet say greenhouse :( If no greenhouse, you can get away with them in *big* pots inside, as long as your windowsills are wide enough. Have not tried outside, but suspect it will be a bit too chilly. Victoria |

Victoria Ok thanks for the replies everyone - I think i'll go down the route of cloches and / or one of those small plastic greenhouses!! About my only option i think!! If anyone has any links / hints / tips on those then that would be much appresiated too!!thanks again! |
