Hi,
March is here, the weather is starting to cool a little, and my Naga is finally putting out a few buds. These will be my first super-hots to grow, and I have not been into chillis that long, so I have no idea what will happen to my plants over winter. Do I pinch them out and possibly miss out on any supers until next year, or do I leave them on the plant, and hope they develop properly? The plant is a bit on the spindly side, but if it is likely to die anyway over winter, then I will try my luck.
My climate is pretty good here - we have not had a freeze in the ten years that I have been living here, but we get a few days each year where it only gets to 10 or 12C, and down to 4C at night. I will be putting up a little poly house outside where it will collect some heat during the day into the house bricks, and reflect it back overnight to help keep thing warmer.
