Clang! Hear that bell?

Hello Grandpa Bob, I have never grown peppers before as the weather is not so good, but I'm growing some tomatos and they doing very well, still green though, nothing like your own home grow veg yummy, Tamara

My peppers were seriously late bloomers this year. When they were blooming it was too hot for them to set fruit. If we have a mild fall, I still could get peppers as they keep blooming. The ornamental peppers at the park, however, did great. They had a variety that had dark purple leaves, and the fruit looked like little black marbles. They are grown for looks, not flavor, but I am tempted to have hubby try some. I have added a pic of the planting. There is white vinca, then the purple peppers, and then there is a decorative grass that is purplish as well.

Last year the peppers did real good, this year they aren't doing so good. I think some of the problem is they didn't get as much sun, because of taller plants close by plus my son put them in pots instead of in the ground. I need to go out there and put them in the ground. I love green bell peppers. The tomatoes are doing great, and the green beans were super duper.

I am getting ready to order some bell pepper plants soon so I haven't gotten any yet but my habenero pepper has gone mad with peppers. It is crazy I have a ton of them I keep giving them away but this is all from one plant!! They are so freakin' hot it is crazy.

Wow, that looks great, Grandpa Bob. Makes me crave some stuffed green peppers for dinner! I also love fresh green pepper on my salad. Yum- I bet your family eats good!

Well I'm glad your peppers finally started growing, I think I responded in that discussion, our peppers wouldn't ever grow very big, we had to pick them, if we waited too long they would go bad, so they never got a chance to grow. I sure like using them in alot of recipes tho, or grilled.

Lucky. My bell peppers didn't do anything this year. I don't know what happened, other than maybe it had something to do with the fact that I planted kind of late. Hopefully I will have plenty of photoes to share next year.

HI Grandpa B, Yea..we have also our peppers this time and I can't believe the size..It's amazing since it's my first time to plant this...I can't wait to harvest! LOL!

Now you are just being mean. First making my mouth water with your banana pepper pictures. Now making me hungry for green peppers. I wish I had a fresh garden.

I have two green bell pepper plant that I planted in a pails. I've had three small peppers on one and one on the other which is a very small plant. Now one of my pepper plants appears to be wilting up. Not sure what I need to do, if it needs a bigger space to be planted or if I am over watering or under watering. I really don't have much time to mess with plants and this is my first year in doing so since I was still under my parents roost many years ago. Glad your pepper plants are thriving! Sounds like you have been very busy with your garden this year.

Hi Gramdpa Bob... I don't have any peppers...my neighbor planted some and they look terrible...he planted the hot ones.... I like the green bell peppers...

Glad to hear they're doing well! It's probably a good thing that I didn't get a garden in this year, though. The weather has been so abnormally cool here that, though I thoroughly enjoy it, it wouldn't have been very good for vegetables!

hi Grandpa Bob the only green peppers I have had this fall are from my super market. lol wish I had gardened while I had a chance as now we are moving way off up the coast. lol I have been here in tustin for years so this is going to be really hard but my son feels he will have a better chance of gettinga good job up state towards San francisco. antioch Ca to be precise.

i think that your Peppers are looking very good Now! I love green Peppers. I put them in so many things! What day is all my stuff going to be delievery. You can add some of thoe peppers to my basket!! LOL

Hi dear they look real good and nice meal, Hmm, Yummy i wonder if u will cook them or have them raw in Salad Well i dont have these plant inhouse but bought it from Market and they are really big Take care

I am happy that your bell peppers finally got a move on.
