Bell & Ross Question&Answer:

I live in IL this is the time of year to grow them but I don’t have the garden space. Would they survive in a pot and how big of a pot should I use. Any help would be appreciated.

Answer by sunybuni
I live in California, but I have done this for several years. I use a big plastic tub (like the kind they sell for you to put kids toys in, with the white rope handles). I used a hole saw to drill 3 holes in the bottom, put in a layer of newspaper (to keep the dirt from coming out) filled with potting soil and planted the peppers. I planted 2 in a pot and had good luck with them. They aren’t quite the size of the ones you get in the grocery store, but they are mighty tasty!

Whenever I try growing them, they are small and scrawny with thin, flavorless flesh. Are there special techniques like thinning or fertilizing that I can use to get peppers more like you would find at the grocery store?

Answer by Charles C
Variety, that’s the main factor. Plenty of water and Phosphorous too. California Wonder is very consistent. When I had a garden though my favorite was Big Bertha. Huge, thick walled and sweet.

What colors can Bell peppers be? How could I grow them so that they’re exotic colors? Do they become less edible as color changes?

Answer by Brigitte H
All bell peppers are fruits of the same plant, Capsicum annuum. Most start out green and as mature, they take on the different colors, such as red, yellow, orange, ivory, and even purple.
Because the green ones are picked sooner and, as a result, require fewer resources, they are less expensive than their colorful counterparts.

Color of mature fruit varies with cultivars/variety.

Here a list of different types and links to profile incl. cultivation methods:

I have them planted in a deeply shaded area in my border as directed. Three plants given as a gift. What do I do with these plants?

Answer by bethany g
I am not sure if a Jacobs Ladder will return each year in Texas but it does in Michigan. When the flowers fade in the fall keep the seeds from the heads of each bloom and replant them in the spring. It is an easy plant to grow from seed and you will be able to spread them throughout your flower beds. I love my Jacobs Ladder and they become fuller and fuller as each year passes.

I grow a garden every year. Next year I plan on only growing watermelon and pumpkins, however, this pass year I grew tomatoes, bell peppers, and corn in the plot. Will this cause a problem with my future watermelons? Also, has anyone used a drip system using plastic two liter bottles? How well did it do?

Answer by Cat
Absolutely you can grow watermelons there. Not problem.

They are green growths that were in the bell pepper’s seed area. Are they sprouted seeds, and if I plant them, will they grow?
Also, how should I preserve them until it’s time to plant them?

Answer by foxxey_7
I have done it before. I kept a little dish in my window and placed the seeds there until I was ready to plant them, it kept them dry. I don’t know if there is a better way to store them but I just left them there until I was ready to plant them. They grow pretty well. I did one in a paper towel in a glass so I could see what happened “under ground” and the rest in a regular container. I didn’t harvest anything from the seeds because I forgot to water the plant and it died…

But yes its possible.

It says you can grow bell peppers using it, but I haven’t found much about it online. And I’m just wondering if anyone has had any experience doing that.

Answer by sensible_man
I have made my own Topsy Turvy planters for years out of 5 gallon plastic buckets. I grow tomatoes out of the bottom and peppers and cucumbers from holes in the side of the same planter.

i planted seeds from a bell pepper, Will they grow?

Answer by bubba
they might, but plant a lot of them. It would be a better bet to spend a dollar and go to home depot and buy the ready seed packets.

I heard that boiling red bell peppers in water for 10 minutes, then letting it cool down for 30 minutes, put it in a spray bottle and spray it on your scalp to grow more hair. Has anyone ever tried this or is this crazy talk?

Answer by Lauren
What??!! LOL, its probably just a crazy idea, but it couldn`t hurt to try it, Ha Ha!

Bell & Ross Question&Answer:

I bought 2 bell pepper plants and then planted them in a plastic storage tote to grow them in my apartment. My 3 yr old went and pulled all the leaves off of the plants. Will they still produce peppers or do I have to throw them out and buy new?
Thank you sooo much

Answer by LuthienTinuviel
Don’t throw them out; the plants will grow new leaves.
