The sweet peppers have been cropping slowly and I think there are around 30 green fruit between 8 plants and the chillies are going mad - I must have hundreds!

Bit late in the day - an update. Six chilli pepper plants in 3.5" pots - over 100 chillies, most of which I have dried. (and lots of lovely recipies!) Eight sweet peppers - Seven in 3.5" pots - 6 peppers from each plant, 2 plants overwintered and repotted last month into 7" pots - I currently have 5-6 peppers per plant growing away at the green stage. One pepper was in a 5" pot - it produced around 8-10 peppers, ovewintered and potted into a 7" - it is currently sulking and will be given a stern talking to if it doesn't behave!
