Hi all, has anyone tried to grow black pepper in the green house yet? will it go through the winter in an insulated unheated green house? our consumption seems huge..

Dear Laurie,
Piper nigrum comes from the tropics and may not like the conditions in an unheated greenhouse. Perhaps if you were to heat it to 30 degrees C and install a dozen growlamps you may be successful....
