“... growing paprika peppers for the first time...”
Wow... I’ve never heard of anyone doing that before. Where did you find the seeds? Very cool, Eric. I am wondering if the Paprika powder you make will be stronger in flavor than the store bought?
The powder is sweet with a sharp kick. The bells are smaller than traditional green bell peppers (I don’t know if this is because of the heat) but the plants are kicking out three or four per week and i have five pepper plants that look pretty good.
The bells appear cream white, then orange, then turn red. I’m saving seeds for next year and sent a few to a FRiend in Georgia. I found the first seeds on the Internet (googled paprika seeds.)
