Enjoy a Plentiful Harvest of Sweet Peppers Without The Fuss!
Our delightful Sweet Peppers are a perfect addition to your home garden or indoor oasis! These peppers make growing your own vegetables fun and easy and offer an effortless cultivation experience from start to finish.
A major benefit of growing our Sweet Peppers is its high fruit production. In fact, these plants are designed to produce an abundance of fresh, homegrown peppers throughout the entire season, which ensures you'll have a plentiful harvest!
Have limited outdoor space? No problem! Our Sweet Peppers boast a compact size, making them ideal for indoor use and container planting. Bring the experience of freshly-grown peppers to your patio, balcony, or sunroom, and enjoy the convenience of having homegrown produce all season long.
In terms of heat, these peppers are measured around 350 Scoville Heat Units (compared to jalapenos, which are measured around 2500 SHU). That means they will be relatively sweet, and will get sweeter as they mature and their red color develops.
With these Sweet Peppers, you'll love growing your own produce with very little effort. Simply plant, pick, and savor the unmatched flavor of homegrown sweet peppers. So don't miss out - grow yours today!
Pollination Info
Sweet Pepper Pollination
Sweet Peppers are self-fertile. You will get fruit with only one plant. However, adding an additional Sweet Pepper will drastically increase the size of your crop.
Planting & Care
Planting: Plant in a well-draining planter with nutrient-rich soil, ensuring proper spacing between plants. Place the planter in a sunny location and water consistently.
Watering: Water consistently, ensuring the soil remains moist but not waterlogged. Adjust the frequency based on environmental conditions and the plant's needs.
Fertilizing: Sweet Peppers benefit from regular fertilization. Use a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer or one formulated for vegetables, applying it according to the package instructions.
Pest Control: Planting near onions is your best chance to control aphids, which is one of the only pests to affect sweet peppers. If you see any pests, they can easily be controlled with dust or an organic solution.
