Hi. I have been growing peppers since OCTOBER of 2005 and they are now flowering. Granted, they were grown indoors under weak daylight florescent bulbs but I reckon this has been way too long.
I do not not much about gardening so please don't chastise me. I am noticing that the peppers (which are now standing 2' tall and not root-bound) are flowering over-and-over again and not producing fruit.
My guess is that they are not being pollinated and as such they won't produce fruit. I could be wrong, of course.
My other guess which is that perhaps that plants are sterile? Is it possible I got bad seeds? Would they even flower?
I have *tons* of flowering points on my pepper plants and they gradually fall off and the tips die off. I can only guess this is because they have not been pollinated by a bee, bug, whatever. I am concerned because these plants, if pollinated, would now produce a huge yield based on their size. Right now they are about two feet tall which is about a foot higher than i've grown them in the past. I'd
*really* love for them to produce fruit.I am putting them outside now thats it warmer here in the mid-atlantic in hopes of them being pollinating by a nice bee or such.
Am I off base here? Will someone please correct me or affirm my suspicions?
Very much appreciated!
Thanks!
