The variety was named as Early Jalapeno.
Biggest ones are about 3" long and 1" wide. Will they get hotter if I leave them on and be milder if i picked earlier?

I thought I would turn down my heated propagator to 20ºC and let them sit under the lights (currently on 16 hours a day) until the weather improves - does that sound sensible? My okra has germinated and I'm not holding my breath over the aubergines, so I don't need the propagator to be so hot any more.]]>

Hope to do much better this year. 
Last year I tried growing chillies for a particular reason and put restraints in place, so there wasn’t as much variety as normal. I really didn’t enjoy it as much. This year I’m going back to what I know & love, growing chillies because I want to, not because I have to. 

But none of that has anything to do with the amount of chillies the voles ate.  they probably got thought somewhere between 5-10kg especially Havana gold & Padron!]]> A very disappointing 47. 749kg .

If you’re not sure what you’re looking at , because photos are a bit cr@p.  The female blackbird is eating chillies!
