Doing a little experiment today: I overwintered chilli plants in my greenhouse. Didn’t cut them back just put them on the floor under a table and let them go pretty dormant. With a little water a couple of wees back leaves are sprouting now so repotting and will see if this is a quick route to fresh chillis or if try r new seedlings are just as good.
Absolutely no idea but I eat approx 2 chillis a day so this is a key test for me

@JimmyB We have done that before and found that yes you can get chillis quicker than going for a fresh sowing I'd still go for some fresh sowing - you can get more varieties going that way Our bigest problem with them is a lack of windowsill space to get them going at the same time as everything else
