Since it's going to frost on Sunday night, I just cut the tops off in one last gasp of effort. If nothing happens, I can buy them again, but growing over the winter gave me a huge jump this year. I already had fruits before I even put them outside. Next season, I'll try and get an Everglades and some larger indeterminates and go from there. Thanks for all the help and suggestions.
At least I can bring my peppers in and winter them over!
This was my first garden, so the whole thing was basically an experiment and learning lesson any, so I'm learning!
Now, I'm ready to rock and roll for next year with some raised beds in the front yard, and I just ordered two bags of wine cap mushroom spawn to bed up in the next couple weeks.
