I really thought I had killed my Chili plants this year but after a couple of emails to 'Chili Pepper Pete' who I purchased my seeds from I brought them back!!

What I did was potted them and left them to bake in the conservatory! I only give them a little water once a week. Apparently the ones I have are from Thailand and need arid harsh conditions to thrive!! I did not believe they would live but they go berserk with less water and boiling temps!
