Zone 7a, Kentucky USA. I read about over-wintering peppers and tried it out last year, but sadly none of them survived. I pruned them appropriately, and kept them in my garage with infrequent watering once temperatures started getting into the 40s at night. We had wild temperature fluctuations (high 60s F during the day and low 30s F at night) and I’m not sure if that hindered the process.
I would love to try again this year, but I’m wondering what others’ experiences are.
I’ll try again this year. No room inside so I’ll put up some clear plastic bags around em and try to make a makeshift greenhouse for those days below freezing.
I did it too late last year and they all died. No room inside to bring em in.
