Capsicum Question

[richardw]

Ive sown two different types Capsicum seed that was getting very old and needed to be grown,i wasn't even sure i would get any to come up.
If i grew both side by side in my tunnelhouse, would the cross pollinate ?,i dont seem to get bees coming going inside.

Depends on species but in general they do cross fairly easily. It's not normal bees, it's very small ones that work the flowers.

Yes and i tend to get a lot of flies inside as well so ive given one of the two varieties to a friend to grow just to be on the safe side
