I want information on peppers - all kinds of peppers. Which sweet and which kinda hot and which hot do you guys plant? I don’t know where to start with peppers. Johnny grows two hot ones and that’s it. I would bet his hot ones will curl your toes. I don’t want one so hot you can’t breathe after you get a taste of it.
I am serious about this since I have absolutely no pepper seed of any kind.
Hubby doesn’t like hot peppers either. Jalepeno is about as hot as I like. Hubby grows the Californa Wonder sweet bell.
I grew Patio Red Marconi, Ozark Giant, and Fooled you Jalepeno this year. They all are doing well. The Fooled you has the jalepeno flavor with reduced heat.
We usually grow jalapenos or small peppers. It varies every year, and we’ve always been very happy regardless of what we planted. I don’t think that we have had much luck with bell peppers, but it’s been more than twenty years since we made that effort.
Hi Marcella - peppers, I LOVE sweet bananas, you can eat them chopped, only a little bite to them, pickle them, great on sandwiches, or saute ever so slightly in olive oil and then freeze in ziplocs. Great on a italian sausage sandwich or a pizza. Also grow cayennes when I do want some heat cayennes will give a slow heat not a burn. I just put them in a long twist tie string and dry them, great in chili and you can put some dried ones in a jar and cover with olive oil. Let sit out for a few days and then refrigerate, The oil will go reddish and a few drops of oil added to your saute pan are great. I also bought some red peppers at the store a few years ago called ancient sweets. I never had luck growing red bell peppers but the yield on the ancient sweets is great. That’s about it for the peppers I have.
