Chilli Plant Update - 17th March 2026

All except three of the chilli plants were re-potted into their second pots yesterday evening. The night time temperatures are still not quite warm enough yet for the plants to remain in the porch all through the night, so I'm still moving them into the kitchen in the evenings, but they were in need of re-potting, so I went ahead and did them. I think in another week or two they'll be able to stay in the porch permanently, which will save me the job of having to move them twice daily. This next photo shows the plants prior to being re-potted and the one below it shows the root ball on my Trinidad Douglah plant.

These next two photos were taken after the plants had been watered-in. There wasn't enough space on the draining board for a group shot so I had to photograph them in two batches.

Things are progressing nicely here and it has been a lovely day today. The sun was shining brightly and it even reached 80F in the porch, so the chilli plants have been enjoying some much needed sun. 😎
