According to the label, a real Kiwi Jenny has moved in today alongside the fake Jenny you guys spotted. By the way, this one has male flowers. Here’s to good neighbors 🤣 Also, today I’m planting my tomatoes, bell peppers, and chili peppers in the garden bed. The bottom line: overwintered peppers do have tiny fruits, but they’re way behind the growth of the plants I sowed from seed—the ones I sowed already have flowers. So, unless you want to preserve a specific variety, I don’t think overwintering is worth it. I’m totally thrilled with the seedling trays. Big, sturdy, healthy plants without pricking out, all in a small space. I’ll do it again next year 😊

Mit den überwinterten Paprika hab ich die gleichen Erfahrungen gemacht. Und ich hatte sie einzeln in 10 l Töpfen. Sie haben sich auch den Sommer über nicht genügend berappelt. Mach ich nicht nochmal.

Da muss man wohl den dreh raus haben um den Paprika perfekt über den Winter zu bekommen. Das hab ich noch nie ausprobiert.
