Reviews
Julia: I really liked “Bugai” and “Kolobok”. Large fruits weighing almost 400 - 500 g each. Suitable for anything: pickling, fresh salads. And basic care: warm watering, removing old, dry leaves and fertilizing. All the bushes were strong, did not hurt and were not attacked by midges. I can recommend them for their unpretentiousness and delicious fruits. You should like it too.
Oksana: I always plant seeds in fertilized soil with potassium and phosphorus compounds. 2 weeks before planting the seedlings, I harden them. After picking, I watered it with plenty of water. I love "Bogatyr". Reflects its name. The fruits are large, with thick walls. I freeze them for the winter, and the taste and aroma are not lost at all. And in general, they are unpretentious, for which they have earned my sympathy.
The best Dutch thick-walled varieties
Dutch varieties of thick-walled sweet peppers are famous for their high quality. Their seeds have excellent germination, the vegetable itself is distinguished by its yield and pleasant taste.

- "Atlantic F1" ripens in approximately 110-120 days. The fruits grow at 150-190 g. The thickness of the pericarp is 10 mm. The skin is dense, but soft, with shine. Cherry color. Needs plenty of lighting. The productivity of this variety is high. The fruits are best used for canning or fresh eating.
Interesting! Dutch varieties are best purchased in specialized stores. And the first generation hybrids (F1) need to be renewed annually - the seeds from the grown fruits do not have the qualities inherent in the hybrid.
Is it possible to take seeds from store-bought peppers?
A very common question from summer residents is whether it is possible to take seeds from store-bought peppers to grow on their property. Indeed, in winter, excellent thick-walled, fleshy bell peppers are sold in stores. They have good taste and can be stored for a long time without processing. Overall, excellent properties. But is it possible to grow a full-fledged crop from seeds obtained from such fruits?
Yes, you can. I have conducted such experiments many times. I can secretly say that every year more than 20 pepper bushes grow on my plot, grown from just such seeds. Their productivity is above average. They retain all the properties of store-bought fruits. Unfortunately, I have no experience in growing from seeds already collected from these plants.
So, experiment. Good luck to you in the new season.
Dutch thick-walled peppers
The Dutch thick-walled variety includes:
- Red Bull. It differs from others in size - the length can be 25 cm, and the weight is almost 400 g. The wall thickness is 8 mm. A search for reviews of Red bull peppers only confirmed its superior size compared to other varieties. Even the bush is tall - about 1.3 m, and bears fruit approximately 3 months after germination.
- Antey. The thick-walled variety is still the Antey pepper, which is considered a mid-season, tall bush variety. The shape is prismatic-conical, the fruit most often weighs about 250 g, ripe fruits are red, but the dark green ones can already be picked, they are ripe. The wall has a thickness of up to 8 mm. They ripen completely (from planting seedlings to reddening of the fruits) within 5 months. The taste is pronounced.
- Titanium. The full path of ripening from seed germination to biological ripeness, when the fruit is dark red, takes about 4 months. The wall thickness is also quite large - almost 9 mm. High taste qualities make Titan sweet pepper a real favorite. The height of the bush reaches 0.7 m, the bush itself is semi-spreading. The fruits are large, weighing more than 300 g.
- Etude. Pepper is considered a productive medium ripening variety and is considered highly domesticated as it can even be grown on a balcony. As a result, the fruits are small in size and have a correspondingly low weight (usually up to 100 g), so a lot of them are tied to the bush - up to 45 pieces. The fruits have a round prism-shaped shape, the walls are dense, up to 6 mm wide.
- Player. The bush of this plant is about half a meter high, even a little more. The fruits are shaped closer to a cuboid, but resemble a bit of a barrel. The wall is almost 12 mm wide, meaning that one fruit weighs 130-150 g, although there are cases when a larger mass is achieved.
- Ox ear. This pepper is one of the early varieties, since the full period of its vegetation is about 4.5 months. Height is about 70 cm, the bush is quite spreading. After reading bell pepper reviews, experienced users of this brand note that it is a durable product that can be easily transported because it has a fairly thick skin that protects it. The fruits are fleshy, wall thickness 8 mm. The weight of one pepper reaches 200 g.
Pallet installation
Factory frame with legs. Now about how to install a shower tray on a wooden floor.
It is best if the device is equipped with height-adjustable legs, brackets for easy fixation and a support frame.
To adjust the legs, you need a wrench and a bubble level. With their help, the pallet is installed in the correct horizontal plane relative to the floor.
Fixtures made from steel, fiberglass and acrylic have one drawback: there is often no support under their middle part. It can be corrected by installing the bowl on a stable podium or support made of any durable and waterproof material.
Level the pallet, then mark.
- First you need to mark up. The bowl is placed strictly horizontally using a bubble level. Next, marking lines for the profile are marked with a marker along the walls, and on the floor for the drain hole.
- After this, you should remove the pan, remove the outlet from it, connect a siphon to the outlet, and connect the corrugated drain pipe to the sewer socket.
The photo shows the siphon connection.
- The pallet is put back into place - this time completely.
- The drain is assembled: the outlet grid is drawn through a gasket to the outlet inserted from below. The assembly is spilled with water to check for leaks.
- After this, you can attach the enclosing structures of the cabin and connect it to all the necessary communications.
- Once the structure is installed, the final touch will remain. At the bottom, along the perimeter of the entire cabin, it is covered with a screen - decorative plastic panels.
- All joints between cabin elements should be carefully insulated with silicone sealant.
When installing a finished shower stall, you need to choose the right location. Preference is often given to corner models. Pipes and electrical wires are pulled to the installation site. The cabin is located above floor level, which ensures efficient water drainage. When choosing a place to install a plumbing fixture, take into account the following nuances:
- The surface on which the cabin is installed must be strictly horizontal. Failure to comply with this rule leads to interruptions in the supply or drainage of water. If necessary, the pallet can be placed on supports.
- The floor covering must not have any recesses. The sections of the wall in contact with the cabin must form a right angle. Otherwise, during installation, the side elements of the shower may be damaged.
- The size of the outlet of the cabin drainage system must match the diameter of the sewer pipe.
- The siphon is placed above the level of the sewer line. This helps drain water from the pan faster.
- The drain is sealed after installing the sump pump. The shower hose is installed after all work is completed.

Description of thick-walled pepper varieties
Peppers are considered thick-walled if the pericarp (the wall surrounding the seeds of the fruit) is significantly thick, up to 10 mm. Of course, such varieties of vegetables grow better and more successfully in southern latitudes, where the warm climate provides “meatiness” and thick walls of the fruit. However, our domestic summer residents, having purchased good quality seeds, manage to grow in their beds various varieties of thick-walled peppers, of which quite a lot have been bred.
Thick-walled pepper, however, like all its fellows, loves warmth and is afraid of sub-zero temperatures, so to increase the fruiting period, it is better to grow it in a greenhouse, and the soil on the site must have high fertile characteristics. These vegetables are also planted in open ground or in a greenhouse, and all of them must be insulated using special shelters, especially at the beginning of the season.
Thick-walled pepper is a heat-loving crop, and when choosing a place for planting, it is better to take care that the shadow of any country building or tree does not fall on the plant. You need to plant seedlings in the ground not very deep, but not shallow either, periodically loosening the row spacing, enriching the soil with the oxygen necessary for pepper. Varieties of such vegetables require frequent, regular watering, preferably with warm rainwater, while avoiding drying out or waterlogging.
As a result, your painstaking work will be generously rewarded - soon ripe, juicy and beautiful thick-walled fruits will appear in the beds, which will delight you with their taste and their vitamin properties.
Basic criteria for choosing a variety
Of course, the first thing that needs to be considered when choosing a variety for open ground is its growing conditions. If you are going to plant a new variety that is unfamiliar to you, carefully read the instructions for the planting material. Strong and healthy seedlings planted in an open area are the key to obtaining a high and tasty harvest.
Please note that pepper is a heat-loving crop, and therefore for central Russia, Siberia and the Urals, choose early-ripening varieties with high resistance to temperature changes and high humidity. Take into account the fact that the seedlings will have to be raised at home or in a greenhouse, observing all the conditions for feeding and watering.
Attention! The place for planting peppers in open ground should not be in a shaded area, avoiding waterlogging or drying out of the soil.
Round varieties of plump peppers for open ground produce high yields in the southern regions of Russia, but for summer residents living in temperate and northern climates, to grow the crop, it will be necessary to provide protection from sudden cold snaps and winds. This does not at all deny that the harvest can be obtained by planting seedlings in open ground, but the choice of variety will need to be approached selectively. Consider the fact that you will need to prepare the soil for transferring seedlings by fertilizing it with mineral and nitrogen microelements, and at the beginning of the season, be sure to provide film cover.

The subtleties of growing thick-walled peppers
In general, you can read about the agricultural technology of bell peppers in a special article on our website. But there are certain subtleties in cultivating thick-walled varieties.
The first thing thick-walled peppers need is a neutral soil reaction. With a high degree of acidity, this culture will not grow and develop. Remember the rule. For 1 m2 of soil intended for growing this crop, 5 kg of dolomite flour is required.
The second important condition is the addition of a large amount of potassium at the stage of preparing the soil for planting seedlings. Do not apply ammonium nitrate - it will stimulate the growth of large foliage and delay the process of fruit set.
The third trick is that 2 weeks after planting the seedlings in a permanent place of growth, you must begin regularly spraying with a solution of boric acid. 1 g per 1 liter of water. Spray the entire bush with abundant wetting of the foliage every other day. This will stimulate the formation of a large number of fruits.
After the fruits have set, you need to start applying regular fertilizing. Typically the procedure looks like this. 5 liters of water are poured onto 1 bush. Then mineral or organic liquid fertilizer is applied and 5 liters of water are poured out again. Then the soil is loosened and a 5 cm layer of mulch is laid on top of it.

Varieties for greenhouses
Since the climate of the Moscow region is quite cool and the end of spring night frosts is late, you should take the opportunity to grow heat-loving peppers in greenhouse conditions. Thanks to this, it will be possible to get a good harvest while observing only the most necessary care requirements. Special attention should be paid to such varieties and hybrids as Cardinal, Indalo or Rhapsody, which react quite painfully to weather variability and can shed already formed ovaries.
If pepper cultivation is carried out in heated greenhouses, then the seeds can be sown directly into the ground in the second half of February, thanks to which the first full harvest can be harvested by June.
