    Not sure where you are Tina but in the s/east we've had mostly very warm, sunny weather since May which has helped a lot - until last week.
    I'd be interested to know what you think of the products after you've been using them a while.

    See original post

    I'm up in Gateshead, North East of England. Had good weather, some hot spells and then a couple of cool patches intermittent.

    Thanks for all the helpful comments. Since I have three jalapenos, three de cayenne, and four sweet peppers. I'll water some with the Chilli Focus and some with Tomato Feed. And keep a note of who gets what. My chillies are behind and I've nothing to lose. It's my learning year shall we say.

    The Formulex I've got some other plants, a sickly looking wisteria, pelargoniums, summer garden tubs to see what that does to them and if any better than my usual blue plant feed.

    Hi. Funnily enough ive got both in my shed.  I use chilli focus all the time. All my chillis seem to like the stuff and all are growing well outside. The first time I used it last year you could see the difference instantly. All the leaves pointed upwards after a few hours and they all looked like they were on crack cocaine lol. 

    It's harder to tell the difference this year as ive been using it from when they were seedlings. I'm pretty sure they are doing better than average though for non greenhouse outside grown plants 

    As for the formulex. I've only used this once. It seemed extremely powerful and alot of my chillies got leaf burn from it and didn't respond well. I didnt bother trying it again although I have heard it's good especially for hydroponics.
