Last October I took several side shoots of my tomato plants and potted them up to see if i could overwinter them on a windowsill. I have one that survived and some of the toms have turned red.
Also, I cut down 2 chilly plants and put them on the windowsill. They produced flowers and the chillies are not red and ready for picking.

Very interesting experiment-thanks for reporting back (I think you mentioned it in the autumn).

How many tomato cuttings did you start off with?

A report back on the taste would be helpful.

I tried overwintering chillies and found I agreed with Bob Flowerdew that it's easier to sow new. Still, had to experiment. Rather save myself the space (he type as he ruefully look at the two trays of chilli plants on the windowsill).

Whilst here: does anyone know who that is that bores into one's peppers leaving a tiny hole and little other evidence? Slightly annoying yet I still eat them.
