The cayenne peppers are flowering.  I am conflicted.  Should I pinch off the flowers and go for more leaves or power through to the edibles and hope for the best?  The weather is hit or miss and they’ll have to stay inside in their peat pots for at least another couple weeks.  Let’s face it, I could never pinch off the flowers.  Kory thinks I’m emotionally attached to the plants.  I think he might be right.
