    Quick question people:

    First time I have grown chili peppers. Plants are about 3 to 4 inches with 6 leaves. Do I pinch out or not - they are beginning to look straggly?


    I don't-they seem to self branch naturally-but others may say differently.

    Hi Inkadog, Interesting about peonies and ants. I often see ants on the buds but just assumed they were after greenfly. I don't know the name of my peony buts it's pink with a lovely perfume. One year the buds didn't open just turned black. maybe there were no ants that year.

    Geoff, if it's not too much trouble could you please bring me back one of those big straw donkeys. I will pay for it COA.

    I don't think you can take plants into Australia, Kate, so I hope you can convince the customs officials that your flowers aren't real.
