I feel like this is taking forever. Not sure if I'll get any peppers in the end, but we'll see!

Is your setup so you can cover it if it rains too much? I keep mine in pots for the same reason but to move it under a dense shrub. Keeping them dryer this year has really improved the fruiting on mine, just hope they ripen all the way.

Yes, the poles hold up a piece of shade fabric that I throw over it if it gets too hot, or a rain storm is coming through (they still get wet, but not as much).
