Question by Laurie love
I started the plant 1 year ago, and I’m growing it indoors. I have got a few peppers off it already, and there is 2 more almost ready to harvest. How long can I expect it to live and prduce fruit.
Answer by ticketoride04
as long as the seed does not or the plant does not freeze it’ll produce and reproduce. If you want more, bury the seeds of the subsequent pepper.

Question by syrious
I found little green bugs, oval, and less than 2mm long, on the bottoms of the leaves. I am assuming they are the culprits. How do I get rid of them ?…..witout killing the bees, if possible. I live in northern CA.
Answer by NigHtaRRoW
er..try pesticides. Shouldn’t there be some kinds that don’t affect larger insects? If that dosen’t work, torch those little buggers.

Question by syrious
I am located in Northern California. A few turnips are also affected, On none of these plants do I see any leaf-eating mites or eggs. The leaves are not crinkled.
Answer by Mark H
Maybe slugs, put a few pie tins out with some beer in them. See if any drown in there. Or get a few toads, they munch on thousands of slugs each season.

Question by sparks
The leaves have sections eaten out and they curl up and get brown and yellow spots. Spraying with insecticide doesn’t seem to help. Other plants in the garden aren’t affected only the pepper plants. If you have any ideas for combating this problem It would be greatly appreciated.
Answer by M L
Aphids, most likely. But it could be a disease too. Check out Gardening Know How, they cover all kinds otopics disease topics: http://www.gardeningknowhow.com/vegetable/pepper-problems.htm

Question by redhot
I planted bell pepper plants for the first time this year. They seem to be growing and flowering fine, but there appears to be a sticky substance on the leaves. (It looks like they have been sprayed with a fine mist of something sticky, but I have not sprayed them with anything.) Since I am new at this, I was wondering if this is normal or not. I have noticed a few bugs, but nothing major. Please help!
Answer by Nea,Nea
That is natural w/ the sticky substance. Its almost their self device. Just wash well when their ripe and enjoy!!!

Question by tay
They’re homemade and the bits of meat aren’t that large at all. Mainly what’s in it is rice and tomato. Just was curious on how many calories are in it overall.
Answer by beta1n
It depends on the quality of the meat.
One cup of uncooked rice has 650 calories.
Vegetables have little to no calories.
I’m going to say between 300-400 unless it’s huge.
