my 3 pepper plants look really good and healthy
about 18 inches tall and bushy, they have been outside for about 3-4 weeks, BUT, still no flowers.

hi nanny- mine are taking ages too and only just started flowering so I would just be patient - you could always give them a feed- a tomato feed might help to encourage fruiting if you have some.
- or maybe i'm doing something wrong too and someone can help us both!

Nanny
No panic, don't know anyone who has flowers yet. Been too damn cold and we live on the South coast. Hopefully this week the weather being supposedly much warmer they will wake up ! I've been bringing mine in at night usually unheard of at this time of year.

Only my indoor ones have flowered yet, do be patient Nanny, they'll be twice as good next year, think of them as next year's peppers :-) Once they start they don't stop, you know, you get peppers and flowers on at the same time :-)))
