If you're referring to types like the Rocoto, you're probably right.
I've next to no experience with these. I tried some seeds last
year and got only two viable seedlings from six plantings using
heating mats.
As I got only 4 pods from 2 plants, I won't be trying them again.
But now, knowing this, just maybe, nah, 4 pods, 2 plants,
doesn't work for me.
