Its been fun to watch these treads over the years. When does a new Growdown usually start? I've been thinking it could be fun to grow "against" someone :P
@Pepper-Guru is in charge and we usually vote on the next GT variety in early January (after the new King is crowned👑).
 
I kept waiting for some of the peppers on my Growdown Throwdown plant to ripen up, but that freeze right before Christmas forced my hand.

Here's what my contest plant looked like right before the freeze.

Let me know if the green peppers don't count, it's not like I'm going to win anyways.

But here's the weigh in of my green peppers.

Last year, it would have been no problem to over-winter this plant, but this last freeze was something else.

My final count is 145 grams (if green peppers count).

That one big one in the center is actually starting to turn red, so I'll have one ripe one.
 
This was actually a very quiet growdown... only 12 forum pages (for now) compared to...

25 (2021 XL antep aci cross)
52 (2020 fatalii)
104 (2019 Sri Lanka chili red)
70 (2018 yellow brain strain)
76 (2017 aji lemon drop)

...not a lot of production, so not a lot to talk about. :(
