Thanks Ddsack! I'm keeping as many pepper plants as possible indoors this year. I was able to overwinter only one from last year. Most were killed by aphids. I am hoping to keep the plants pest free indoors, so I can keep them going as long as possible. The overwintered Biquinho, is blooming but no fruit set yet.

I know that International Falls can get pretty cold during winters, but Minnesota is still south for me. I looked at the globe and was amazed, when I realised that Antarctic Peninsula is on same degrees south as we are north. If the ocean currents change, it is getting really hard to grow anything here.
