chillies!

my chillies are growing lovely, am doing Jalapenos this time but got 5 lovely big ones growing  

Ignore the speckles i sprinkle DE on sometimes, to help keep bugs away so theres abit left on! nom nom

i'm doing chillis and peppers next year

Well done Ella, my Dad also grows chillies in his greenhouse, lovely   

I love growing chillies i do chillies and herbs on my windowsill

Ooh I love chillies looking great Ella  

Oooh, they look yummy!

I've got some too  

mmmm I love jalapeno's  

Have some seeds as well so my project next year. Cant beat growing your own and I bet they taste is fantastic. Did tomatoes a few years back and they tasted soo good.

The chillies I grew last year tasted rank  

Ella sorry to be a bit thick but what is DE??hubby has an obsession with growing chillies but all his have white fly on them  

Stella I think means Diatomaceous Earth.

Nice chillies Ella

yes as hayley said it's - diatomaceous earth the stuff i use to worm the boys, i did get a bit of white fly when i first started but i keep sprinkling the DE on and it kills them very very quickly

heres one that's food grade so safe for everyone, just don't breath it in
