Description and cultivation of the best varieties of sweet peppers

Pepper Bulgarian, like other varieties of sweet Bulgarian vegetables, is one of the favorite crops of gardeners. The high-yielding plant has many health benefits. The harvest is much higher in humans growing peppers in greenhouse conditions... But, this does not guarantee a good result. Choosing the right seeds is essential for growing pepper.

Variety selection

Each person, coming to the store, selects pepper seeds for planting, guided by the picture on the package. And this is the most common mistake. If the vegetable in the picture is fleshy and large, it is not a fact that it will grow the same on the land plot. It takes a lot of effort to get the desired result.

Any sort of vegetable has its own individual characteristics. Don't rely on a pretty picture on the packaging. In order not to be mistaken when choosing a planting material, it is better to ask the seller everything about the variety you are interested in. What you should pay attention to:

  1. When choosing a pepper, take into account the size of the area on which it will be grown. A lot of space is needed for tall crops. They will not be able to grow in greenhouses with low ceilings.
  2. Another equally important factor is also taken into account - the ripening time of the pepper. If a person has a large greenhouse, he can afford to plant vegetables with different ripening periods. If the plants are planted at the same time, they will bear fruit over a long period of time. Thus, there will always be fresh vegetables on the table.
  3. Protective properties of the immune system. In each region of the country, there are characteristic diseases that affect vegetable crops. And pepper, unfortunately, is no exception. Buyer should ask seller about pest resistance. For more information, it is recommended to ask experienced gardeners for similar moments.

Greenhouse gardeners can use a little trick. Dig up a few bushes of late culture and transfer to the living quarters. Thus, the fruiting period will be extended until winter.

Growing region and conditions

Regional affiliation is an important point that no one should overlook. Peppers will not be able to grow if the seeds are not zoned for a certain area. Experienced summer residents and gardeners buy seeds of local selection. The best place to buy is a proven seed stall.

cultivation and conditions

Each variety of pepper needs certain conditions during development.Some prefer sunlight, others do not bear fruit without other equally important conditions. Illuminated greenhouses help people not to think about the moment. If the crop does not receive enough light, there will be no expected harvest.

Fruit characteristics

To date, breeders have managed to bring out a large number of pepper varieties that differ in size, shape and taste. The buyer is offered a wide assortment to choose from. In shape, they resemble a pyramid, cone, ellipse, stick, cube, and even a circle.

Another parameter that people are interested in when choosing is the color of the pepper. As a rule, classic red is chosen. Gardeners who love to experiment are happy to plant yellow varieties, white, blue, purple and even green. There are fans of bright orange, and there are those who want to diversify their dishes with brown vegetables. They all deserve attention.

    I plant a Mustang every year - delicious, meaty, and for conservation and fresh consumption - it's just perfect. But last years I decided to use a bioactivator BioGrow, and the yield is almost twice as large, with the same number of bushes planted.
