The reviews mentioned "borers" left it alone as
you mentioned. Now for one squash bugs leave alone!

I have been growing ronde de nice, which are 50 days to fruit.

I am not sure with the very short growing season, that I
would be successful at 70 days. My 70 day + peppers
only give me one picking before the freeze.

we always plant our peppers from starts which the
greenhouse takes care of. our season is probably
about as long as yours here and we have plenty of
peppers (several rounds). just depends upon the
late storms or early frosts as to how many we get.
last year i was picking peppers pretty late in the
season (into October) as we didn't have any hard
enough frosts to knock out the plants completely.

for me red peppers have replaced tomatoes and i
stock the freezer pretty well with roasted red
peppers that i can use in other things eventually.

The only greenhouse pepper are ancho. And I get a
few off them. My favorites -- the new mexico red
variants -- I am lucky if I get one picking. I
have to grow them from seed.

What kind of red pepper do you grow?
