“I started growing the Edino variety last year, and this year I decided to plant Big Papa, which attracted me with its beautiful color. I’m not disappointed in the quality of the fruit.”
“Asti remains my constant favorite, with whom we have been together for five years. During all this time, we had to periodically fight pests, and fortunately, diseases were avoided.”
“I’ve been growing the Bogdan variety for the second year. So far there are no complaints. The fruits are really dense and tasty, they impress with their taste.”

Michael:
“For a long time I grew small peppers. I have long wanted to plant some unusual variety. I settled on King Kong. The fruits are truly gigantic, but at the same time dense, juicy and incredibly tasty.”
The benefits of bell pepper
On a summer day, having beds of fresh sweet peppers on hand means having access to a source of all the necessary vitamins. The yellow and red fruits of bell peppers contain huge amounts of vitamin C. There is even more of it in pepper than in blackcurrant and lemon.
Important! The highest concentration of vitamin C is found in the upper part of the fruit, that is, in the place that is usually cut off and thrown away.
Another very useful element is rutin, or vitamin P. Together with vitamin C, this component helps strengthen the walls of blood vessels, reduces their permeability and fragility.
A number of B vitamins will help cope with insomnia, weakness and depression. It will also be useful for people suffering from diabetes and edema.
Oddly enough, there is even more vitamin A in bell peppers than in carrots. But this vitamin restores beauty to hair and nails, improves skin, and strengthens vision.
Bell peppers are good in many dishes; they can be canned and pickled, but fresh vegetables are the healthiest. Pepper in salads and appetizers will provide the body with a daily dose of all necessary microelements and vitamins.
Pepper varieties with fruits growing upward
Let's start with the fact that in terms of yield and taste, these peppers are in no way inferior to ordinary plants with drooping fruits. It all depends on the conditions in which your peppers will grow, climate, care and, of course, the characteristics of the variety.
Characteristic
Both types of peppers belong to the large nightshade family, which also includes tomatoes and potatoes. Plants can have different heights, foliage, shape, color and taste of fruits. In sweet peppers, the amount of capsaicin approaches zero; in hot peppers, it is this alkaloid that determines the degree of pungency of the fruit.
Among both hot and sweet varieties of peppers there are indets and low-growing plants, so when choosing, you need to take this characteristic into account. In the conditions of the regions of the North-West, the central zone of the country, as well as beyond the Urals and Siberia, it is desirable to grow this crop under shelters. Peppers (especially hot ones) grow well in ridges, but in the northern regions, summer can be cool, and therefore you will have to wait a long time for the harvest.
All types of peppers are divided into groups according to ripening time. For the south, the best option is late-ripening tall bushes, which will delight you with a good harvest of fruits. For colder regions, it is necessary to choose early and mid-season varieties, and it is important that they are adapted to certain climatic conditions.
Today, gardeners can choose any option among peppers that will suit their needs. Plants with peppers that grow upward are also interesting for their decorative properties. Hot peppers of this type are often grown in pots - in the kitchen, on the balcony, where they are a real interior decoration. And the ripening fruits can be used for seasoning.
It is customary to cultivate sweet peppers on the site, planting them in greenhouses, shelters (arcs, tunnels), as well as in all kinds of greenhouses.
IMPORTANT! If you plan to take your own pepper seeds, grow hot and sweet peppers away from each other.
If you always use only store-bought seeds, there is less hassle (although more expense), and peppers can be grown in one greenhouse. And you don’t have to be afraid that this season, instead of sweet fruits, you’ll get peppers with bitterness due to cross-pollination. This property can only appear in the next generation of peppers, and in the first year there will be no changes in the taste of the fruit.
Properties
Sweet peppers are a culinary favorite because they can be used to prepare so many different delicious dishes. Various pickles, marinades, and assorted dishes are also tasty, where a wonderful vegetable successfully keeps company with tomatoes, cucumbers, hot peppers, and squash.
The pulp of the fruit of the plant contains a large amount of various vitamins, including carotene, rutin, vitamins C and B. This pepper is useful for those who want to lose weight, to increase immunity, improve the functioning of blood vessels and the heart.
Thanks to the beneficial microelements and substances contained in sweet peppers, the condition of hair and skin improves, mood improves (this is also typical for hot peppers), and metabolism is normalized. But it is imperative to take into account the individual characteristics of the body, since sometimes certain reactions to eating pepper are quite possible.
Hot peppers differ from sweet peppers in that their fruits contain an alkaloid called capsaicin. It is no coincidence that even a genus of hot pepper is called capsicum. This substance provides the pepper with the required degree of heat, and if there is a lot of it, the fruit turns into a real “nuclear warhead”.
Fans of spicy dishes prefer to grow hot varieties (and there are some among the growing peppers), but for those who prefer spicy peppers, there are many hybrids with sweet-spicy fruits.
ON A NOTE! The spiciness of peppers also depends on growing conditions. Typically, the hottest fruits grow in hot and humid climates.
It is capsaicin, as well as some essential oils, that hot pepper owes its widespread use not only as a spice, but also as a medicine. It helps with various colds, joint pain (tinctures, ointments, creams with pepper), and even with cancer. By adding a small slice of hot pepper pod to soup or powder to side dishes, you can strengthen your immune system and protect yourself from various infections.
But you should always remember the rules, as well as basic accuracy. There are varieties of hot chili that cause unpleasant sensations on the skin, so you should only work with the fruits of such peppers while wearing gloves. By the way, it is useless to wash down the pepper that caused the burning sensation with water; milk, yogurt, a spoonful of boiled rice or a piece of bread are best suited for this.
Pepper care rules
Reviews from gardeners who have been growing peppers for more than one year indicate that it is not so difficult. To get a big harvest you need to put in a little effort and patience.
Pepper has a fairly long growing season - from 80 to 130 days. Even in the south of Russia, the crop will not have time to ripen if pepper is planted with seeds in the ground. In order for plants to bloom well and grow quickly, it is better to plant them in seedlings.
The basic rules for growing bell peppers look like this:
- The site is chosen in the fall - it should be a place well lit by the sun and protected from the wind.
- Peppers like soil that is loose and saturated with oxygen. Therefore, if the soil on the site is clayey, it needs to be mixed with rotted sawdust, ash, and peat.
- The safest way to grow heat-loving peppers is in a shelter. If there is no greenhouse on the site, ordinary beds will do. If possible, you should install arcs over the beds and cover the plants with polyethylene or agrofibre at night. It is preferable to cover the seedlings at night until June 15; in the following days, you can lift the edges of the film, but do not remove it completely.
- Pepper branches are very fragile, and the roots are close to the surface of the ground. Therefore, along with planting seedlings, it is necessary to insert a wooden peg near each seedling. When the bush grows, it needs to be tied up to maintain the integrity of the shoots.
- It is better to sow seeds for seedlings immediately in individual containers - pepper does not like transplanting, it is better not to pick it. When planting plants in a permanent place, it is better to cut the cups in order to move the bush along with the earthen lump.
- After transplanting, the pepper does not need to be watered for about five days; regular loosening of the soil is sufficient. In the first two weeks, the seedlings will be weakened and sickly; they do not need excess moisture.
- Plants need to be fed at least three times throughout the entire season. This is done at the time of flowering and during the period of fruit ripening.
- Water the pepper only with warm water. Cold water will inhibit the growth of bushes and drop the ovaries. It is best to use distilled water.
- Before the flowering period, peppers are watered using the sprinkling method - water is sprayed from a watering can all over the bush. During the period of fruit formation and ripening, the bushes need to be watered at the root.
- You should constantly fluff the soil to a depth of about 5 cm. Pepper roots need air.
Attention! The best predecessors for sweet peppers are cucumbers, herbs, and root vegetables (potatoes, carrots, beets). You should not plant peppers where tomatoes, physalis or zucchini grew last season.
The best varieties of peppers
The varieties listed below were selected based on several factors:
- productivity;
- fruit quality;
- ease of care;
- resistance to diseases and viruses.
Based on the photo and description, you can easily choose the variety suitable for each specific case for 2022.
It is also important to remember that the best gardeners buy pepper seeds only from trusted producers. You can collect seeds from non-hybrid fruits yourself. To do this, choose the most beautiful peppers that have the correct shape and uniform color. The top of them is carefully cut and the testis is pulled out. In this form, they are left to dry for 3-4 days at a temperature of 20-25 degrees. After this, the seeds are placed in a paper bag.
Attention! Bell pepper seeds are suitable for germination for five years.
"Prince Silver"
The variety is an early ripening variety, the fruits ripen by the 100th day after planting the seeds. For seedlings, seeds are sown at the end of February or in the first half of March. Seedlings can be transferred to the greenhouse by mid-May, and peppers are planted in open ground only when constant warmth has established. There should be no frost at night, and the ground should warm up to at least ten degrees.
Peppers have a conical shape and are small in size. The weight of one pepper does not exceed 100 grams. At the stage of technical maturity, the fruit of this variety is yellow, and after full ripening it turns red.
The wall thickness of the vegetable reaches 6.5 mm, which makes it juicy and tasty. Peppers of this variety can be processed, canned, stuffed, added to salads and other dishes.
Description and characteristics of the variety
The Golden Pheasant sweet pepper was created in Ukraine by specialists from the Dnepropetrovsk Research Institute of Agriculture. The variety can be grown in any greenhouses and shelters, and in fairly warm regions - in open ground. It is not cold-resistant and requires warmth and good lighting.
The variety is demanding on soils and fertilizing. With an excess of nitrogen, its yield decreases.
The bush is medium-sized, 50-70 cm in height. The fruits are located on it in small bunches, not drooping, but sticking out to the sides. It takes 120-130 days from full germination to maturity.
The peppers are very large, reaching 250-300 g, with very thick and fleshy walls of 8-10 mm. The shape is cuboid, but can sometimes be round-cuboid or dome-shaped. The color at maturity is yellow. The taste is wonderful, sweet, the flesh is aromatic and crispy, used in fresh and canned salads and various dishes. You can freeze peppers for the winter.
What will help you get a high pepper yield?
There is no “potion” that will make pepper bushes fertile and resilient. This capricious plant needs regular care; pepper is not a crop that can be “visited” only on weekends.
In addition to a number of diseases and viruses, plants are threatened by pests; they must be detected and eliminated in time. All this requires the owner’s time and labor. But if you take good care of the pepper, it will give you a whole storehouse of vitamins and beneficial microelements, help you improve your health and simply enjoy its unsurpassed taste.
You can safely choose any variety from the rating for 2022; all of them are worthy of the attention of farmers and, rightfully, are considered the best pepper seeds. To get a colorful assortment in jars and on plates, choose multi-colored varieties of bell peppers.
