Hi all,
I live in very coastal california and probably wont get any frost this year
again. I have about 20 chile plants, somewhat the worse for wear, but
still well alive in the ground outside. Can I prune these and get a good
crop of fruits, or would I get more from newly started plants? Is pruning
them worth it? (they are anahiem types, poblano types, and jalapenos.) If
it is worth pruning them, do I just lop off some of the taller branches, or
cut very severely and closer to the ground to stimulate all new growth?
thanks, Janet.
