Growing hot peppers correctly

Hot peppers are grown less frequently than sweet peppers, but this doesn't diminish gardeners' curiosity about their cultivation. They are commonly grown for Eastern dishes.

Sweet peppers would certainly win if anyone announced a competition for the most colorful, festive, and simultaneously most vitamin-rich vegetable. These qualities explain why our vegetable growers are so eager to grow this capricious fruit, no matter what. And there's plenty to look forward to! This heat-loving, short-day plant is very demanding and delicate in our harsh climate. The materials in this section will help you understand the specifics of cultivation, needs, preferences, diseases, and pests of this Mexican plant, which for some reason we call "Bulgarian."
