Last year I planted the rainbow heirloom peppers and also the north star
hybrid peppers. They both done fairly well with the exception of some
blossom end rot on the early fruits. The wife and I both enjoy stuffed
sweet peppers and this season I'll be trying a hybrid pepper called Big
Bertha. I'm in central Pennsylvania and hope this pepper does well here
in my garden. Has anyone grown this pepper and if so, what is your
opinion on it? Would also love to hear about other peppers that may do
well for me. Zone 5-6

I seldom grow sweet peppers, but a friend in Louisiana sent me some
seeds for a long sweet pepper he calls "Longhorn" that's prolific
and good. It's not really a bell pepper, but it tastes like one.

This year I'm going to try growing seeds I saved from some "Ancient
Sweets" giant red peppers I bought at Sam's Club. (they were huge)
No idea how that'll turn out.

I also am going to plant seeds saved from Better Boy tomatoes. I
have Better Boy seeds, but I want to plant the F2's instead and see
what I get. Then save the seeds from the best 2 plants, etc.
