>>1072709they thrive in those climates, but it doesnt mean it costs less energy. I myself an growing Mango's in the Netherlands, the reason why tropical plants need arid soils is mainly because of rootrot, tropical soil is a prefect drainer, which means there are little nutrients in the soil, so tropical plants have bigger, more efficient roots in the tropics. to bring them to europe they need to grow in a pot that is just abit to small, with some gravel/sand in the soil. if you trick the pepper to develop a healthy root system in europe, keep temp regular, and expose the pepper to enough sun, without the full heat, you will be able to get pepper that is tastier than a conventional pepper. If they've dried in the sun for conservation and flavour development.
