Kevin They will survive, just don't expect any new growth or pods. If you are digging them up, you might break the tap root, if you do it will affect next years growth. I had a couple habs, in a greenhouse, soil heat was from horsemanure, held the soil temp at 50F. The plants lived, nice green leaves, but grew less than 2" in 6 weeks. When you bring the plants in. Watch for aphids. Lord Byron over the winter. Would they survive in a cold basement with temperatures around 50 or so degrees? How much light do they need (I would be using the growlights I used to start them as seeds, there are no windows in my basement). I was just wondering if I would be wasting my time.
