Yeah, I got you. Peppers are not annuals, just in countries where it is too cold for them over winter. Pretty sure in Mexico they've got jalapeno bushes that produce for several years.
Now, is that the same green growth, or is this the rebound after the original top growth died in the cold? If it's the same vegetation, you need some fertiliser. Coir is inert. It has no nutrients. You need to fertilise.
Yeah they live for 5+ years. Our weather only just hits freezing but clearly that's too much. I had overwintered or attempted but I think I took the frost cloth off too early.
Think it's new green grow. I have fertilized and it looks much happier. The kit it came with came with coir. I've never used it before but it seems to have kept it alive/dormant over winter.
It was inside but it's still freezing inside. Like cold enough for oil to freeze. I kept it on a heat mat and had a container over it.
