Chilli Survivors 🌶️
Tried to overwinter my chilli plants this year—kind of a test run. I left one group outside (winters are usually mild here) and brought another group indoors. Sadly, the outdoor ones didn’t make it, but 8 out of 13 indoor plants are thriving with new leaves already! 🌱

Lessons learned:
-Keep them indoors.
-A sunny spot is best.
-Pruning is totally fine.
-Check for pests regularly.

Survival Mode On! 🌱

Looking at my chili plants, I can totally feel the "survive mode." After pruning them, I'm hoping they’ll save enough energy to come back stronger next year.

Kinda feels like me right now. I've blocked out everything that's not essential until the end of the year so I can focus on finishing some writing. 📝✨

Check out this hilarious pic of a chili plant getting a shower! 🫣 Unfortunately, it was a must due to some pesky lice.

Also, I'm experimenting with overwintering my chilies—some indoors and some outdoors. Any advice from the chili community on whether I should prune them for the winter, and if so, how? 🌶️❄️ Let me know your tips!

Harvesting chillies. Today, we gathered another incredible batch. Remember, though—always wear gloves when handling chillies. A friend thought he could go without, and now his hands are feeling the heat! To soothe the burn, a quick wash with washing-up liquid (no water) followed by Aloe Vera does wonders. 🌶️

I've been growing chilli plants since February and they've been thriving! Now that autumn is here and the temperature is dropping below 10°C at night, I've decided to bring some of the plants into my bedroom to share my space with them. And look how well they're doing! Even though the season is almost over, they've had a boost and the plant is full of ripe chillies!

Guess what! I harvested another 400g of gorgeous habanero chillies today. I put them in the oven at 60° for 10 hours to dry them out. I'd already pickled the first batch (also 400g) in oil, and they were so good!

I'd absolutely love to hear any great ideas or recipes on how to make a large quantity of chillies keepable.

The fruit of the chillie is growing very fast :)

Tomorrow I'm going away for a few days to visit a loved one. Unfortunately, I can't leave the plants outside. But my dear neighbour will look after them and water them.
I am curious to see how big the chillies will be when I get back.

Woo-hoo! My first chilli fruit started to appear.

I am a bit proud that I have managed to put the plants outside every morning to let the insects do the pollination.

Fingers crossed that the other flowers will turn into chilli peppers too.

Go bees go :)

I think I need to do some repotting :). My chilli plants grow very differently. Some are just little babies and others are quite big.

The smallest one in the picture is a plant that is always outside. As a newbie to chilli growing, I wanted to see if this would work.
