I don't know about anyone elses experiences, but I had
great luck this last season with plants that I
overwintered. I didn't get many peppers while they
were inside, but the production once I got them
outside skyrocketed. Especially in my large, slowly
maturing varieties such as my Ajis. I don't think
that you have to select only small plants at all.
