Reminds me of the Off Season grow off of a couple of years ago...

contest Off season grow off?

I'm wondering if anyone would be interested in doing an indoor grow off over the winter without use of lights, just for fun. Pepper of choice would be Grandpa's Siberian Home aka Siberian Home, Grandpa's Home, Grandpa's Siberian etc etc. It's small and good in pots and doesn't require a lot of light. I'm asking now to make sure everyone can source seeds. I just think it would be fun to compare yields :)

This is the day before frosts/freeze tonight.
I picked all the Pods the Tazy girl had left.
Tonight I will say goodbye to this remarkable pepper plant.

This is the picture of Tazy girls last pods. For me this is the end.

Everyone.
 
Guess who's back?!

Sorry for abandoning ship mid-competition... I had too much to chew on in the last couple of months and I had to deal with a few minor injuries that slowed me down. As a result I had to make choices and focus to keep my head out of the water. My garden was not a priority so it got neglected, but I still managed to harvest plenty of tomatoes, beans and some other veggies along the way, plus enough peppers to keep me warm during next winter. I know my TB could have given much more, but it is what it is like Tink used to say. Here is my first and last weigh-in for this year Growdown: 540.9 g

Now that things are starting to calm down, I should be able to be more active once again (I've missed this place!).
And thanks to everyone who contacted me during my absence (you know who you are), that was very kind of you.

Hey @Bou! Good to see you posting again. I had some family issues to deal with in the Spring/early Summer as well. A few plants survived the neglect, but I didn't plant out until mid-July. 4 or 5 days later, a wabbit mowed down all the TB, plus several others. It was not meant to be, I guess.
