Posted - Mar 08 2016 : 12:22:01 PMHas anyone ever tried and/or had success with bringing their bell pepper plants indoors at the end of the growing season?
I've found info here and there online on how this can work - you basically let the plant go dormant in a pot in your basement or other cool dim place.
I would love to even possibly save bell pepper plants for a year or two - I only buy a few plants each year due to the cost of buying the already established plants.
Just curious if others have had experience with this?

I have a cayenne pepper that has ovevrwintered with no protection for 2 years, and it's mildly frozen a handful of times with no damage to the plant.
