Longest life of your pepper plant?

mememe · Nov 28, 2017

Had a pimenta de Neyde, lasted for years. It would've lasted longer if it wasn't for my wife's winter watering "regime".

Now I'm growing some tepins, I wanna see if it's true what they say about their longevity.

You all have inspired me to set my own record. I appreciate it.

I'd love to see a Glog on this, like from seed to fruit to OW

Ideally, I want to grow all my plants year round - maybe a few can be killed off but numerous growing seasons per plant is definitely a goal of mine

I would have to bring plants indoors in late August-late march probably but the rest of the year outside

I was really sad when my 5 year old Scotch Bonnet Chocolade died.

One thing I noticed was that insects did not touch it anymore after the second year.
Of course I hade plenty of new young plats for them to chew on instead...
