Habanero chillis in greenhouses
Whilst I've grown chillis for two years now, this year I invested in a
greenhouse, and all my chilli plants seem to love it. However, living in South-West Scotland, as well as being wet most of the time, it's now cold enough for the greenhouse to be damp most of the time. It's too cold for flowers to stay on the plants, but the dying buds and flowers are going mouldy rather than dropping off, and quick as I may be, it spreads like wildfire down to the rest of the plant. Obviously I remove the offending dead bits as soon as I find them, but the Habaneros in particular are suffering Yes, they were late in, but they have got some fruit on, albeit still green, so I don't want to give up on them. So I wondered if any of you have experience of growing this breed under glass in a cool damp climate, and had any pointers in addition to just planting them earlier next year? Thanks Dave Chalton |
