frost bit pepper plants

[FlatBottom]

I'm new to the whole gardening thing, so please bear with me . The question is: I started my pepper plants on the early side (begining of March) so they were quite big 10-12" tall and some were already blossoming before I put them in the garden (late April) the deal is they got frost bitten and then the wind beat the heck out of them. The plants look rough now and have really hit a wall as far as growth, .....should I replant or just hold out a while? They still look like they may blossom, but I don't know if they will get enough energy from the sun do to the poor foliage. Will the peppers be small?

They will probably come back,but the recovery time will take more time than replanting,In minn. I dont put peppers in till June here in Willmar area

You will more than likely be better off replanting. I have had plants try and get healthy and it takes forever and I never get that great a crop. My went to heck in the wind and I will be replanting in a week or so.
