First chill...



Naga



Scotch Bonnets



Do you think I've planted too many?  :signLOL:





And in other news.....

Our tomatoes are going well... we've got loads of trusses with about 8-10 on each.

My Chilli plant now has some very small fruits developing, however my bell peppers and tomatoes are progressing well.  keep going out on Slug patro at 10pm each night to kill the little blighters before they make it to my plants  :fighting:

Bell Boy Pepper plant


Money Maker Tomato plant - just working two trusses at the moment, once it gets to 6ft tall I will allow other trusses to develop.  :happy2:

For the slugs just bury a pot in the garden with some beer in. The slug smells it, goes for it and drowns a happy slug. :wink:

Looking good Thor. Our largest tomatoes are at a similar stage, weve got 3/4 plants and a ton of trusses. Do tomato plants only flower once? i.e. when youve picked them all, thats it?
