Been gardening for a good number of years now. Love the cottage garden look and growing lots of herbs. Huge fan of companion gardening.

Belacan chilli! Not for the faint hearted! A Malay chilli sauce made with super hot chillies, a touch of prawn paste (belacan), rice wine vinegar and palm sugar

@charlotte I'm quite pleased! Greenhouse and garden at school is doing amazingly well but because during the hols I never seem to have enough time I haven't been taking many pics!

I found this in the "bargain bucket" at my local garden centre. Any tips for growing? Plan to put it in a pot on the patio

We're not sure ourselves. @linfoster @oldcrofter @kathy @angiebabes any ideas?

It is fairly easy to grow Apaches during any season if they are planted in a pot and kept indoors. The plant itself can take ages to develop but once it starts producing peppers, they will keep on coming thick and fast, usually faster than the average family can consume them as long as they are watered correctly. Hope this helps @LLW

Thanks @angiebabes! I was lucky enough to have picked up a plant with quite a few peppers on it already. Does it really need to be grown indoors? I've repotted it in a big pot to put on the patio although i suppose it can go in one of our empty growing frames
