  1. Not sorcery. Many winter them over by bringing them in. You just haven’t had a freeze yet.

  2. What is this elaborate contraption? First time seeing anything like it, can you point me to some resources so I can read more about the idea?

    Meanwhile I can’t get mine to produce one 🤣

    Here in 7b I got one last tomato harvest early this week, and all my pepper plants are still producing even though we got a couple sub freezing nights.

    Tomatoes a week before thanksgiving was not something I ever expected to see. Never had a productive season last this long lol.

    Idk where you live but it’s been an exceptionally warm fall in 4b. Not warm enough to keep the peppers growing but the cold crops like my kale, collards, lettuce, radishes, beets, etc are still going strong.

    My Bell Peppers finally started producing in late October and now November I have more than a dozen on the vines. Still no freeze. I planted these via seed back in May. I love home grown Bell’s but this is way too slow.

    I remember this from earlier in the year.

    Just guessing by the picture, it looks like they are getting more sun than the ones on the ground.

    Methinks the answer to OP’s question, depending on location, is human-caused global warming. Genius I know

    In full tropical areas you can get production from peppers and tomates for years. So I’m guessing it’s elevated enough the cold air that would kill it off is sinking below where it would damage the plants.

  14. Neat! One year oh like 10 years ago i had tomatoes and peppers producing until mid December. But they were right up against a south facing wall of a green painted steel shed at work. iirc, i even had cucumbers through mid November that were trellised up against the wall. I was working at a grain elevator at the time and the soil in that spot was VERY fertile because of all the corn fines and soybean debris.
