2017 Chillis

This page shows my chilli plantings for this year (2017). All chillis were potted on into sequentially larger pots, ending at around 8-9″ pots . The compost used was my own mix of free draining compost (added vermiculite) with extra nutrients and minerals, for example: Seaweed, Charge, Remin. Seeds were started off in a heated Vitopod propogator with LED lighting.
