mine were slow then suddenly lots . yours will be same im sure.

i have used this recipe often now and it is very soft and tender. 

here are my two plants.

chillie plants are great  so many chillies i will have to give some away . the peppers are slower but i do have a few full sized ready to use this week. the smell from the plants is really nice and spicy lol.

your  plants look very healthy and the pics are good.
my chillies are looking good too you can hardly see the plant for the fruit,but the peppers are not as abundant. tho i do have some large enought to use and some smaller ones that look as if they will stay on the plant. i think i assumed that the pepper plant would be a larger version of the chillie one. know better for next year.
going to use them in this weeks curry and my own home grown lamb.
