Pepper Flowers

BvBDortmund09 · June 29, 2015

Hey everyone. First time gardener here and I need some advice/help. I have 3 pepper plants in containers currently flowering, isn't it too early for this? I have an orange Habanero, red Scotch Bonnet and yellow Fatalii so they're not "early" varieties by any means. Before I transplanted them into their final containers in early June, they tried to flower but I snipped those off. This would be the second round of flowers. Should I snip these also or leave them be? I want the actual plants to grow bigger since they're only about 12" tall so far but I don't want to ruin a potentially good harvest by making a rash decision.
