    do peppers produce more in thwe second year.

    Also depends on species an variety, for example C. pubescens can have a much higher yield. But do not forget that after you overwinter peppers you might want to give them larger pods for new root growth, because more roots can support more foliage and more fruits BR Jan

    Hello, In my experience it works quite well with different species of pepper(atleast with the domesticated ones, dunno about the wild ones(especially the ones with 2n=26).
