I cut them back to just a Y before the first frost and left them near a window indoors. First leaves started growing in towards the end of February. With them flowering now I could have peppers in 6 weeks

Plants are amazing. I have never done that with peppers but have with cannabis. Took fully flowering plants about 8 weeks to turn around but they did it and were very healthy and vigorous.
Peppers are technically a bush, so as long as you keep them out of the cold they will keep coming back.
If you want some of the pepper seeds just DM me. 6500 sats
