>>1037233>Just fertilised once in the beginning so far, but plan to give a little more later onI would bet that is your problem, I fertilize twice a month. i use pic related, shouldn't be too different from what you said you use.
>It's in full sun, but given the location (Germoni), hot days (30+) have only really started in late MayFull sun can even hurt your peppers, mine even got burned a little
I'm in Germany, too.
>But it's normal to ripen late hereYeah no. While September is the main harvest for me as well, the cultivar and espcially when you STARTED is more important. See
>>1036897I would recommend you to fertilize more regularly, most bottles tell you how often.
Also you said you put them out really early?
Maybe they took a hit from a cold night which stunted their growth?
