        @Loofah , I gave a Cayenne type chili to my brother last year. He lives not far from you in Horsley. He put it outside on the patio , in a sunny sheltered spot , and was very pleased with the results.
        Maybe in sunny Surrey chilies can grow outside ?

          This is true, I could put them on the patio and I think it's definitely worth a go. Weirdly this is a recent thing, 4 years ago I was harvesting chillies that burned my mouth!

              Maybe it’s your tastebuds adapting? I know I am becoming more tolerant of heat.

                    Definitely not that - I've become even more of a wussy with chillies than before!

                      I started early this year with the new Trinidad Moruga Scorpions.

                      After ten days on top of the gas boiler and three days on the window sill.

                              I am indeed keen, especially for the scorpions. And, I have a cunning plan in mind.


                              Thanks! I usually wait until there are atleast two pairs of true leaves before I prick them out into small plastic cups.
