About 8 weeks ago i planted a mixture of different peppers thet started of at great pace pushing up in about 3 weeks, they then seemed to stall at the first leaf stage. But in the last week they have really pushed on, my question is should I pinch the tops out or leave them only.

Ta!!

I leave them to it, they'll branch when they're ready ;)

Thanks. Are they normaly this slow they've been dormant for nearly 5 weeks, although do appear to be catching up now.

Mine have also stalled - I think I was over-watering them though

Its strange you should say that, I had been so busy on the plot they got forgoten and they dried out they looked fine but the growth spurt started after a good watering.
Cut back on the watering maybe?
