Great, @simone_in_wiltshire, I'm pleased it's doing well. Those frozen fronds may turn black. I remove those that do, just for aesthetics (they are usually the youngest fronds). On milder days I also remove the fleece stuffed in the crown to allow air to circulate and to dry the fleece out.

Things that have made you happy today 2026
One of my high school’s science teachers did an experiment, I know not what as I wasn’t in the room, which caused an explosion and set fire to his tie. As you say, those were the days.

If my chillies get a bit leggy I just plant them deeper when they are potted on. They root readily from any buried leaf nodes and I don't remember ever losing one from this method. I don't use grow lights or a heat pad so I won't be starting them till next month.
