hard freeze tomorrow nite, so last harvest

It was a great, great year for me for peppers (whole garden, really). We've been picking, eating, canning, and sharing our peppers...all from a total of 9 plants (1 Carolina Reaper, 1 Bell, 1 Hab, 2 Hungarian Wax, 2 Thai Vesuvius, 1 Thai Full Moon, 1 Indian Jwala). I left one Vesuvius in a bucket untouched...I'll bring it in tomorrow and see how long I can keep it going inside. The rest I picked tonight. I guess I'll try to dry some, dice and freeze small batches of the others, try to make a sauce. I think I'll plant less next year...lol. If I recall correctly, I started all these indoors mid-March. So they've been going for 7 months.

I went out this morning and picked all of the EP, tomatoes, and peppers, since Sat and Sun nights are supposed to have a heavy frost. I will go out in the morning and see if I missed any. The only things I didn't harvest were the Thai peppers, as I have more of those than even I can use!
