If you told me they weren’t GMOs I wouldn’t believe you because they grew so, so fast and they’re super resilient. I know chili plants are more resilient than other species, but I’ve never seen something like this.
However only one plant is giving me flowers, the others not yet. Can I do something to help flowers grow into fruit? Prune leaves, for example? I seriously have no idea about gardening beyond giving plants water and sunlight.
Are there any coloration issues? Turning yellow or going lighter green than usual?
Oh the plants are super healthy (although could be cramped in the pot I put them in – I didn’t expect the seeds would take so well and now the pot is just full of leaves lol), I was just wondering if there’s something I can do to help them give higher yields.
When you’re searching online you’re going to have to choose between higher yields and better fruit of you want to get consistent advice. They generally don’t happen at the same time. Specifically, I have heard of people keeping their peppers in small pots because it intensifies the flavor of the fruit, but that does come at the cost of producing a larger quantity.
Really helpful thanks! Not sure what I want to do with my plants to be honest, I’m just getting into gardening x)
Oh, then I have to agree with what others have said. Getting rid of some of those leaves will help the plant redirect energy toward blooms and fruits.
