Tips for Picking Peppers

Показать описание
Doesn’t it seem like just yesterday that I was planting all these pepper seeds indoors to put under grow lights? Now they're full-grown plants filled with peppers! It seems simple, but if this is your first time growing peppers, how do you know when to harvest?

------------------------------

For colored peppers, the pepper never starts out as the color it ripens to! Most peppers start in a green hue, and as they grow and ripen, they turn color. So if you wanted a red pepper, make sure to give it time to turn to that color!

As the plants become heavy with peppers, harvesting them helps the plant put energy where it needs. Too many peppers can stress the plant and weaken the branches. Use pruners to cut off the peppers and avoid tearing the branches.

Once harvested, rinse and store in plastic bags in the refrigerator. They will keep for two to three weeks if picked firm!

Great video. I also love growing hot peppers. This video helped me because my Cajun Belle Peppers hadn't turned red yet and I was about to pick them because I saw some green ones too and the plants were a couple of days past the maturity time-frame on the plant tag. I just wait like you suggest until I see them turn red.

Thanx again

Hey Kaleb...your kittens are ADORABLE <3 No HOT peppers for me but I love sweet bell peppers whether they're green or any colour I can find.
