 "GF> I bought five new plants yesterday
 "GF> At the moment I have 192 Seeds planted

You are definitely a full fledged Chile-head! I have only 6 plants on
the go: 2 each of habanero, cayenne and "Super-chili". I have no yard so
my "gardening" is restricted to flower pots indoors on window sills.

 "GF> It seems that my Ancho plant has or had weevil/s. That's what the
 "GW> guys at the local nursery told me anyway.

 "GF> I bought some insecticide and I'll spray it

I have had various insect attacks from time to time. Soapy (not
detergent) water sometimes helps. I forget how much soap to use (not
much) but others here can jump in. I use insecticides too, but not after
the fruits are developed. I don't want insecticides on my food if I can
help it.

 "GF  The curled leaves are only because
 "GF> of the cold weather.

Most chilies are very cold intolerant. They shouldn't be exposed to
temps below 6 C.

 "GF> I don't know
 "GF> what I'll do if they all germinate! 

Have a harvest party? Start a hot sauce company? <G>
