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. :)

I can't help thinking my dragons should be bushier than this. They're really tall and thin... What do you think?

I have some fruit on my dragons some of which is around 3" long. They are still gren though. How long do you think it will take until they go red?
