I would leave them until you can see the roots at the bottom of the cells, then pot them on.

i ordered from them this year, bought a pack of the world record hottest chilli seeds they sell, all germinated which was good ( with help from their germination solution) but put them in the greenhouse and the bl**dy slugs got everyone!! so will try again next year with them.

The seeds arrived very quickly

i placed an order with this site for some chillie seeds 5 weeks ago, yet i am still waiting for them to be delivered.
i have e-mailed them 5 times about my order - and have failed to get a single reply. my advice would be to stay well clear of these people.

That doesn't sound too good does it.

Think I may give them a miss then, was going to pay by Paypal but they are a waste of time if the seller doesn't send your item.

Which type did you buy Kingmonkey and have they germinated ok?

I bought pepperoncini from him last week and received them 2 days later. (I know its late in the season). I think his seeds are over-priced though, especially if you buy lots. This is probably a result of him offering free P&P.

I have heard good things about http://www.chileseeds.co.uk/ and have used them before. They have a wider range of chilli seeds than mrseeds.

I have 3 good sized chilli plants (ANAHEIM) on the windowsill, they have no flowers yet. They look really healthy but last week i woke up and one had just flopped down on its side and is really floppy so i staked it. now another has done it. Are they sick or do they just need staking?

Thanks

none of mine have "flopped"... have you over watered? not watered enough?
Any sign of disease on the leaves?

Mine are now nearly taking up the whole window where they live and probably stand about 1 1/2-2 foot tall... no staking been needed this year or previous years and they are all flowering

lily-ella

how often do you water yours? the leaves look great

Hi. One of mine flopped this week, so gave it a good water [even though the compast looked quite damp] and it is back up again.
