I’ve just brought most of my plants in for winter. They’re still producing fruit. A couple of the plants are actually producing a lot of fruit. Right now I have an abundance of Carolina reapers. There’s always a chance for cross-pollination among peppers, so you […]
It’s officially fall and you know what that means: It’s pepper season. Peppers are a fall harvest crop and one of my favorite things to grow. It might take all summer for them to ripen in my climate, but it’s well worth the effort when […]
