I would really LOVE some great Bell Peppers this year. I have great
luck with other kinds but I have yet to grow a great Bell


how are you growing them?

we have very little trouble
growing them here. once in a while
a tomato worm or a bit of rot.

full sun, heavy soil, no
mulch, no fertilizer other than
buried organic materials, planted
after the soil is warm.

10-10-10 might encourage leaf
production but not much else. try
laying off that for green peppers.
