Brett.... I think that shouting profanities at them can only toughen them up and make them meaner... I think that you should continue it... if a neighbour looks at you funny for doing this, throw a cat at them.

Richo, I cut mine back to almost nothing... last year I left the main bit that comes out of the soil and only it, and it was about 15cm high, no leaves left on... they loved it!

I've finally got some action with my chillies. Two have sprouted.

Sig worthy.

Hi,

My chilli bush/tree whatever, just gave birth to a baby chilli bush/tree whatever. I couldn't be prouder. What's even better, it managed to sprout it in a different pot, so I don't even have to do anything.

Cheers,
Nik

Imgur is taking forever.

Hi,

Yeah I keep telling him to send some over and I'll make him up a couple of death bottles. Customs probably wouldn't approve I don't think. Unless it's dried.

I can't even go near the one we make now unless I'm cooking with it.

Cheers,
Nik

I used to be the only one working at The Grove that could sample the chilli vodka. Wasn't the greatest gig at 9am. Hahaha

Sig worthy.

Place down south makes a chilli schnapps. I enjoyed it. They called it devils tongue. Could you make a schnapps Nik?

I was thinking about experimenting with one of my plants, by pruning 1/3 off the top above the nodes, and seeing if it bushes out a little!

Hahaha, those were some evil mornings. Remember when we left them in for an extra week when Dad went away? Hahahaha. Those birds out the front that tried it nearly fried.

@Adam: Yes I can make Schnapps!
