Bell pepper Triton has very compact bushes, shaped like umbrellas, 30-50 cm high. There is no point in planting it in a greenhouse, but in the north it can be used to compact plantings when growing indeterminate varieties. In the center and south of Russia, this variety is intended for open ground.
Ripening is ultra-early - 75-80 days pass from germination to technical ripeness. The fruits have the following characteristics:
- large size – 100-150 g, according to other sources – up to 200 g;
- in technical ripeness a pale yellow hue;
- in biological maturity – red;
- cone shape;
- have 4 chambers with seeds;
- average walls – 4-5 mm;
- about 11 cm long.
The harvest can be used for fresh and canned salads, any dishes, including preparing stuffed peppers and lecho. The pulp is sweet, juicy, with excellent taste, and contains a lot of vitamin C and B.
Features of cultivation, planting and care
We recommend sowing seeds for seedlings 60-65 days before the intended planting of plants in a permanent place. The optimal temperature for seed germination is 26-28°C.
When true leaves appear on the plants, they are transplanted into separate cups with a capacity of 0.3-0.5 liters.
Pepper does not like transplanting, so do not be surprised if after you have transplanted the seedlings into separate containers, they stop growing for a while. You can “smooth out” the stressful state a little by spraying the plants with Epin.
When to plant pepper seedlings in the ground
After the threat of return frosts has passed, the seedlings can be planted in a permanent location. Some people plant in open ground in May, while others only plant under covering material or under film; it all depends on the climatic conditions of your region.
When planting pepper seedlings in the ground for 1 sq. It is recommended to place up to 6 plants per meter of plot. Peppers are planted in the ground without being buried, but in exactly the same way as they grew in cups. Pepper plants, unlike tomatoes, very rarely produce lateral roots, so there is no point in deepening them.
Pepper responds well to watering and fertilizing with complex mineral fertilizers. During the summer, 2-3 feedings are usually done.
If you grew Triton sweet pepper, please write whether you liked it or not. What was the yield under your climatic conditions? How do you rate the disease resistance of this variety? If possible, attach a photo of the entire bush or individual fruits you grew to your comment. Thank you!
Care
Do not forget that pepper feels extremely uncomfortable in windy places. Choose places that are most isolated from the wind. In this regard, greenhouse conditions are, of course, very suitable for pepper.
If the crop is grown on poor soils, then fertilizing with complex fertilizers is indispensable. A herbal infusion can be made specifically for this purpose. To do this, pour a large amount of freshly cut grass with water and leave it alone for two weeks. Then strain the fermented infusion and water the plants at the roots with it twice a day, morning and evening.
Bell pepper loves moisture and does not tolerate drought. But the culture does not favor excess water. Make sure that the soil does not dry out, but do not overdo it, because excess moisture can provoke an outbreak of fungal diseases.
Water directly under the root, otherwise there is a risk of sunburn. When watering, it is advisable to use warm, settled water with the addition of wood ash.
An important procedure is the formation of a bush. Do not forget about removing stepsons and fattening shoots.
Pinching will help direct all the energy of the plant to the development of fruits, and not the vegetative mass of the bush. Despite all the benefits of the procedure, it is recommended to perform it no more than once a week. You can remove no more than three stepsons at a time, otherwise there is a risk of harming the plant.
Pepper has a fairly developed root system, so there should not be more than four plants per square meter.
The productive Triton plant has oblong red fruits that do not crack during heat treatment and are easily transported.
pepper Tolstyachok - description and characteristics of the variety
Early ripening varieties of sweet peppers
Here we talk about those varieties that can be grown in the ground, both completely open and under the simplest film covers, and in greenhouses.
Lumina
Although not everyone knows this early Moldovan pepper variety by name, it is a little familiar to everyone. Lumina is that golden-white pepper that is one of the very first to appear in spring in all Russian and Ukrainian markets and stores (sometimes you only see this one variety on the shelves). But not because it itself is the earliest - some varieties ripen faster, but because it is loved by many farmers who grow vegetables for sale, and many amateur gardeners.
At first glance, there is nothing all that special about Lumina. Its fruits are not the largest - weighing only 100-120 g, and not the most beautiful - ordinary wide cones with a wall 5 mm thick. The taste is quite pleasant, but also not the most outstanding, and in terms of yield, if we count records alone, many varieties can surpass it. They value it for other things, and above all, for its reliability. Lumina is not too picky about the soil, and its fruits ripen very smoothly, are stored well (in suitable conditions - longer than 2 months) and tolerate transportation well.
Lumina's bush is of medium height and standard, which can also be attributed to the advantages of the variety - it is quite convenient to collect fruits from it.
Ivanhoe
The Ivanhoe variety is also one of the best early varieties that have appeared in recent years. The first fruits reach a state of technical ripeness on the 105-115th day after emergence (their color at this stage is white-cream), and full, biological ripeness occurs a little later - on the 125-135th day (fully ripe fruits are red ). Ivanhoe’s bushes are semi-standard, compact, of medium height; it is not necessary to specially shape them, and collecting fruits from them is also quite convenient. Like Lumina, its fruits are not too large - weighing from 95 to 140 g each, they are also cone-shaped, but the cones themselves are a little narrower, and their walls are a little thicker - up to 7 mm. Inside, each pepper is divided by partitions into 2-3 chambers.
Pepper Triton
Triton pepper is an early-ripening, sweet, high-yielding variety intended for cultivation in various climatic conditions. The unpretentious plant is suitable for growing in open areas, but in risky farming areas with unfavorable climatic conditions, farmers plant the crop both under film covers and in polycarbonate greenhouses, which does not affect the quality or quantity of the crop. Sweet, juicy and very beautiful peppers are used for preparing salads, summer snacks, hot dishes and canning. Experienced housewives make vitamin freezing of fruits, which become indispensable during flu and winter epidemics.
Description of the variety
Triton pepper is the result of the work of Dutch specialists. The culture belongs to the early sweet varieties of universal use. A high-yielding plant, both when grown in open ground and under special shelters, is capable of producing up to 11 kg of beautiful and juicy fruits on a plot of 1 m2.
- good yield;
- universal purpose;
- excellent taste;
- attractive appearance;
- low maintenance requirements;
- high immunity to diseases and pests;
- resistance to temperature fluctuations.
Hybrids
Hybrid varieties will delight you with large fruits
Hybrids are resistant to plant diseases and have large fruits. Seeds of hybrid crops are not suitable for the next planting.
Marinka's tongue
Maryin's tongue is an option for lovers of massive peppers. The plant withstands unstable weather conditions. The bush needs to be tied up, because... the weight of the harvest may cause it to fall.
The peppers are shaped like a tongue. They are painted in dark cherry color. The fruits have a pleasant sweet taste and juiciness.
Triton
This hybrid is resistant to cool weather, dampness, and wind. When planting seedlings in the ground, the first ovary on the bushes is removed. This condition is necessary for the bush to develop well.
45-50 fruits are harvested from one bush. At the stage of technical ripeness, the fruits are yellow. They turn red when fully ripe.
Atlantic
The largest fruits are produced by the Atlantic variety. Seedlings are planted in mid-March. The seeds are wrapped in a damp cloth and kept for two days to ensure good germination.
In the last days of May, seedlings can be planted in the beds. The bush is tall and strong. The distance between two bushes should not be less than 40 cm. The fruits are massive, juicy, ripen 3 months after the first green sprouts appear. The pulp is tasty and aromatic.
Early pepper varieties for open ground: reviews from those who grow
Olga, 45 years old, Barnaul: I have long wanted to grow bell peppers in open ground on my plot, but I couldn’t find a suitable variety that would be resistant to our unpredictable climate. Finally, I purchased the seeds of the Siberian Prince pepper, which was specially bred for cultivation in our region in open ground. The variety turned out to be high-yielding, and the fruits were quite large and tasty. I use the harvested crop not only for food, but also for preservation. Lecho is especially tasty. I recommend it for cultivation to all vegetable growers from Siberia and the Urals.
Natalya, 50 years old, Ulyanovsk: I have been growing bell peppers for many years. But last year I wanted to plant something new and unusual. My choice fell on the Hannibal pepper variety - I was attracted by the unusual, slightly shocking name. Its fruits are prism-shaped and turn brown when ripe. The yield of the variety is not bad, the taste of ripe vegetables is excellent. Especially unusually ripe fruits look in a salad.
Tatyana, 35 years old, Ryazan: I grow early varieties of bell pepper on my plot for further sale. Therefore, I choose varieties with high yields that bear fruit well in open ground, since I don’t have a greenhouse on my site, and at the same time with excellent external characteristics. Recently I have been growing the Charming variety, the yield of which suits me quite well - up to 12 kg of ripe produce from one square square of area.
Svetlana, 55 years old, Volgograd: I grew different varieties of pepper in the garden; in our warm climate, this vegetable plant grows and bears fruit well. I try to grow already proven varieties, but every year I allocate one bed for some new variety or hybrid. I really liked the early Belladonna pepper, suitable for open ground. This hybrid begins to bear fruit already 90 days after the sprouts appear; the fruits are quite large and have a cuboid shape. I use the harvest of this variety mainly for food - salads or snacks.

- blackleg. Affected seedlings suffer from darkening and rotting of the root part. Infected seedlings should be removed completely. The affected area is treated with copper sulfate and sprinkled with ash;
- gray rot. Signs appear on fruits and leaves in the form of grayish spots. After a few days they darken and spores appear on them. In the early stages of the disease, the affected parts should be removed. The plant itself is sprayed with fungicides;
- anthracnose The leaves of the shoots are covered with light brown spots. They gradually darken, expand, and are surrounded by a brown rim. Such leaves must be removed promptly. Spray seedlings with fungicides;
- WILT. With this disease, individual leaves and shoots begin to turn yellow and wither. The development of the bush gradually stops. The fight against the disease consists of removing infected bushes and loosening the soil;
- top rot. On emerging fruits, small depressed spots first appear. They quickly increase in size, become brown and dry. Affected fruits quickly gain color, but become dry. The cause of the disease may be a sudden change in weather, improper watering, lack of calcium, excess nitrogen in the soil;
- underdeveloped fruits. Vegetable growers call them buttons. These fruits are devoid of seeds and their shape is greatly deformed. The reason for their appearance may be low daytime temperatures and insufficient air humidity;
- spotted wilt. Young leaves change color from green to bronze. They may turn dirty purple. Brown or pale yellow spots appear on young fruits. The top of the plant gradually dies. To combat the disease, use foundationazole and temporarily stop watering.
For prevention, you need to follow the recommendations of experienced vegetable growers.
Seeds need to be treated before sowing, crops should be alternated in the beds, the soil should be loosened regularly, damaged areas of plants should be removed, and temperature and humidity conditions should be maintained.
Pepper cultivation
Scheme of growing pepper in a greenhouse.
If you know and follow the recommendations of experienced gardeners, then every beginner can grow bell peppers and get a rich harvest. Agricultural cultivation technology is not complicated.
The seeds of this crop are sown at different periods of time. It depends on the climate zone. In any case, this is done before March 1st. The soil mixture is poured into boxes. Seeds are planted in it in increments of 5 cm to a depth of 1.5 cm. Watering is carried out every week. After the second leaf appears, the seedlings are picked and placed in separate cups and bags.
To plant in the ground, you need to choose an area of fertile soil, protected from the wind. It is better to choose a place where cucumbers, legumes, root vegetables or herbs were planted last year. After potatoes, tobacco, tomatoes, eggplants and peppers, there is no point in waiting for a good harvest. The soil needs to be properly prepared. For each square meter of loam, add a bucket of rotted manure and sawdust, and 2-3 buckets of peat. In clay areas, add 2 buckets of sand to this. Peat beds need to be supplemented with turf soil and humus. On sandy soils, add 2 buckets of clay soil, the same amount of humus, sawdust and peat. Seedlings are planted in rows every 40 cm. A distance of 60 cm is left between individual rows. It is better to do this in the evening. At night the bed is covered with film. During the day the film is removed. The soil needs to be loosened regularly and watered every week with warm water. With the beginning of flowering, watering is increased.
