These were pruned-but not the roots and not as severely as some of the others.

As allways, very nice plants!
They seem to have made it through the winter just fine.

The Bih Jolokia has set pods already. It did very well as an over wintered plant

Hi John, how is your Chicanna Purple doing ? It's such a beautiful plant !!!!  :)

Hi Margarida

It has done well. You can see it's picture in February above and here it is last month. As you can see it regained it's former size.

Yes !!! :) It's all big now ! :) Marvelous !
Do you sometimes make cuttings out of your peppers, or none at all?

I have tried cuttings and this worked most of the time but I prefer plants grown from seed.

When you overwinter a plant, does it require LIGHT during it's dormant stage ?? I have a crawlspace under my house where I can put the pruned potted plants so they do not freeze (it at times gets below 0 degrees F where I live in Ohio). But do they need LIGHT to over winter ??

Also the man forum will not show up in English for me after I registered, before I did it would.
