Do you fertilize or sidedress with compost? Tomatoes and peppers tend to be heavy feeders. They need a lot of nutrients (but follow package directions if using fertilizer). And I can’t tell from the picture if the soil is mulched. Mulching goes a long way to help prevent soil moisture from evaporating, cooling the roots, and generally helping to limit the impact of extremes in heat and water availability on plants.

I don’t remember this. When were these glamour shots of my husband and me even taken?
The Bravest Knight on Hulu. The focal character is the daughter of two men, who both appear regularly.
Edit: Also “Ridley Jones” on Netflix. It’s an Indiana Jones kind of thing. The two gay fathers of one of the side characters feature a lot less, so you could cherry pick some episodes.
I honestly can’t remember if it’s June-bearing. It is producing at the moment. Will have to see if it fruits at the end of summer. Either way I’ll divide it later this summer. It’s got more than extra runners, these are basically fully grown plants grown from the main plant. Thanks for the advice!
Did you just thin, or did you actually divide them? Any tips for dividing if that’s the way you went? I’ve had the same plant in a pot for three years and it’s grown substantially since the first year (I can see four separate shoots coming out of the soil), but the yield seems to have reduced, and I think dividing it would help it. Just not sure when/how to go about it.
Best of luck to you. For what it’s worth, I have a single pepper plant that looks beautiful, puts out a great succession of flowers, and is surrounded by pollinator plants. But it just hasn’t put out a single fruit yet. Oh well. It won’t deter me from planting again next year.
