I have my chillies planted last year after transplanting into pots and these were actually very happy. The only drawback was the fact that they get moldy quickly when it is poured too much and there is also a star deducted. Otherwise, they were ideal as a stopover and were as the chillies were too large simply planted in the next larger pot. The plants also rooted simply by the pots and by the end of the year was nothing left of it.
So a very good solution, for which there are 4 stars ****.
