Notes

Golden bell pepper.

"Plan 18-24'' apart in rows 24-36'' apart. Full sun. Harvest at 68 days. F1 hybrid. 4.5''x3.5'' sweet, light green fruits mature to a deep golden yellow. Protect from intense afternoon sun. Best in warm (at least 65F), rich, well drained soil, mulch. Feed when planting and when flowers start."

2014-09-02: Ate first yellow pepper.

2014-10-18: Retired. We got about a dozen peppers - definitely not as many as last year.

Experimental: this feature is new and might be flaky. These dates are estimates from 25 km weather-model data, not readings from a station at your garden, so a cold spot can be colder. They may be wrong, so check your national weather service and ask local growers before relying on them.
