My cousin who is living with me had a small farm of chili before and sells chilies to the middleman.

Actually I think chillis will grow quite successfully in slightly smaller pots.<br /><br />Esther; the so-called Tomato Pots have some fairly big holes in the covers, so it is still possible to judge the moistness of the compost - and of course you could always omit the cover anyway.<br />Re the bracelet - Jane bought it from a place she found on the internet. It's a really nice item ,and only £4.99 including postage! The chillis are made of glass.<br /><br />Hazel; thanks for your persistence! The chillis will probably be moved out into the open at about the end of May, as long as the weather is OK. Once they are properly established they are fairly resilient.Mark Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04558305122821209520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-54995713249838251542011-05-11T06:01:23.244+01:002011-05-11T06:01:23.244+01:00Yay!Yay!Hazelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16577208643431414375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3840827850297141825.post-12998314020052681602011-05-11T06:00:22.618+01:002011-05-11T06:00:22.618+01:00How long will your chillies stay in their little h...How long will your chillies stay in their little hot house...or will they move out into the garden?
