Hey everyone,
I'm pretty much a newb here and could use a little advice. I had a few red bhuts and a chocolate hab in pots last year and well got addicted. So this year I built a little garden and expanded. I grew some stuff from seeds I bought online and bought a few plants at a local nursery. Overall not too bad production given the cooler wet Southern Ontario weather this summer.
I have a 7 Pot white plant that grew rather slow, it looks healthy and is now flowering but no pods have set. The last few weeks the temps at night have been dropping down to mid 40's low 50's and I'm worried frost will be an issue in a couple more weeks. I was really looking forward to trying these peppers and no luck. So what I'm wondering is what would be my best chance at getting a couple peppers off this plant before its too late this year? I was considering digging it up and putting in a pot to move in to the warmth of the garage at night hoping for something to take or building a little tent out of some plastic sheeting hoping to greenhouse it at night.
Any thoughts?
