I brought some Tepin seeds back from Houston 3 yrs ago, lost my first
crop, planted another and watched it grow (slowly) last yr, My mother
planted some seeds about 400 miles south of me here at Coffs at Kiama.
She is about the same distance from the beach as me 800 mtrs/yds, i have
to admit her soil is better. Hers were slow but did have some fruit on
them, mine alas are still strugling (some in soil some in pots) these
are both overwintered 2nd yr Chiles, I was wondering if anybody had any
tips or a climate scenario that I could replicate to get some fruit. 
Habs grow well here as do some Aji's, I have had probs with Ancho
Pasillas, some Manzanos. I'm also looking for a new source of Tomatillo
seeds as I gave my last ones away by mistake.
