A good source of advice on all aspects of growing chiles (or any
other veg) is the veggie mailing list, and the (much smaller)
Kitchen Gardens list specifically for the UK.
For example, from today's mail,
> If you want the pukka original on slugs go to British Gardening Online.
> http://www.oxalis.co.uk
> There you will find a subsection
> http://www.oxalis.co.uk/slug.html
> with the original text.
> Yes, I have a copy in my archives, but I can't claim any hand in the
> original. Is it copyright, I don't know, but just in case.......
>
> You may also like to try the American Official...Slug page - lots of
> links, even pictures in colour!
> http://www.webelegance.com/slug/slug.htm
> Happy surfing.
Here are (bits of) the details:
> Welcome to Veggie-list
>
> Now this discussion group is not about
> how to "veg out" in life, but to understand and discuss issues pertaining to
> vegetable and edible plants. A vegetable is a plant that is cultivated for its
> edible part or parts. This can be its roots, stems, leaves, petioles, flowers
> fruit or seed. A edible plant is something you can eat and not get sick or die
> from.
>
> These are some of the topics this list will discuss: Vegetable garden design,
> propagation, cool season and warm season crops, natural and chemical
> fertilizers, when to plant seeds, container gardening, vegetable storage
> and canning, soil prep, water techniques and pest and plant diseases.

Both are friendly, moderate-to-low volume, very low noise groups.
Worth a try.
