Planting Guide:

• Prepare the Soil: Ensure the soil is well-draining and slightly acidic to neutral (pH 6.0-7.0). If your soil is heavy, amend it with compost or organic matter to improve drainage.
• Plant the Seeds: Plant Green Bell Pepper Seeds 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) deep, spacing them 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) apart for optimal growth and to allow ample room for each plant to develop.
• Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during dry periods, but avoid overwatering. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.
• Care for the Plants: Green bell peppers require consistent care. Mulch around the base of the plant to retain moisture and keep weeds away. Regularly check for pests, and prune as needed to encourage healthy growth.
• Harvesting: Harvest the peppers when they are firm, green, and fully developed. They typically ripen in late summer to early fall. The peppers can also be left to ripen further for a sweeter flavor, turning red or yellow.
