Answer 2

Even though there may be peppers in the garden, I always have a planter on my patio with the little miniture chili peppers. they grow fast, have nice flowers on them and I can just step out back and grab a few here and there when I'm cooking. I do the same with cherry tomatoes! You can also put the peppers in a used soy sauce bottle. then fill with vinegar. and use it on salads, greens, etc. No refrigeration needed and lasts a long time. When the vinegar gets low- just add more! I keep it on the table with the salt & pepper.

Answer 3

I have grown MANY types of peppers in my California garden. I must always have a Bell pepper -- California Wonder is my favorite -- I usually let them turn red before I pick them (sweeter!!). I always plant some "Anaheim Chilies" for a little bit of heat and some good flavor!!

Then, my husband (who has a cast iron stomach) always insists that we plant something "HOT". We have planted "Long Red Cayenne", "Hungarian Yellow Wax", "Jalapeno", & "Pasilla" with good success.

Peppers need a long, warm growing season. Use floating row covers if you do not have enough heat.

Good Luck!!
