Are they peppers or rather strange looking chillies? We had both types of plant, but I forgot which was which!

Chillies and Peppers Looking Good
These were repotted a couple of weeks ago and I have since kept them in the south facing window. They don’t seem to really be doing much, but they are not showing signs of dieing either and so to me that sounds good. Just to recap, we have never successfully grown these before, we try [...]

@Two Weeks
The sunflowers we planted outside into the garden today. Added netting (to keep the cat off) and slug pellets (to keep the slugs off), and we need to get some canes for them to climb up against. The rest is going well (apart from the cress which is now dead) and the tomatoes are next [...]
