The largest open-pollinated bell exhibits many hybrid qualities, including earliness, sweetness, and good flavor. Blocky, 4-lobed fruits ripen from green to red on vigorous, disease-resistant plants. Sturdy 3-5 ft. plants have an excellent canopy of dark green leaves to protect the high yields. Excellent drought resistance. Great for stuffing.

Jupiter Bell Pepper Seeds
In early spring, start seeds indoors 8 weeks prior to warm nightly temperatures. Place the seeds in sterile media and cover 1/4” deep. Provide 85°F bottom heat, bright light, and keep moist at all times. Seeds will germinate in 7 - 21 days. Transplant seedlings into pots and grow until there are 6 true leaves on the plant. Plant them directly into rich soil, 30” apart or into large 5-gallon containers. Only plant peppers outdoors on a cloudy day, just prior to getting rain. Plant when soil is warm, at least 2 weeks after last frost, and when temperatures remain above 70 F.
