ARGHHHHHHHHHHH!

It's cold over here in the UK. "Brass monkeys" cold, we call it, yet it's still sunny.

I put my plants outside yesterday mid-afternoon, right in the sun. (photos coming, by the way. I'm so proud of them!)

The sun went down. I went out to bring them indoors and.... ARGH!!! :shocked:

I thought they were dead. Man, they do NOT like cold weather at all. All the leaves were droopy and shrivelled. I was seriously concerned.

But 24 hours in the warmth of the house has sorted them. Still, I have learnt my lesson.

Edit: Forgot to mention the runty jalapeno I'm growing in the office. Had a few drinks friday lunch time and left it on my 3rd story window ledge at work. Over the weekend, it snowed AND was frosty. I think the trunk is still alive, but it's completely nude now :shocked:

It does, doesn't it?

Shake them gently by the stem 3 times a day... make them run laps... any other tips?
Wait a day and do what you did before that made them a wilty (but not for such a long period of time). You basically have to get them used to being outside.

Ah. Righty ho.

Cheers, chief.

What up on the job front, if you don't mind me asking?
Don't mind you asking at all. I was just going to post something on that... Look in the Lounge in about 5 minues.
