Red bell peppers, or red capsicum, are mature versions of green bell peppers and are rich in flavor and nutrients. Here’s a guide on how to grow red capsicum:

Growing Red Capsicum (Red Bell Peppers):

  1. Climate and Soil:
    • Red bell peppers thrive in warm climates. Ensure temperatures range between 70-85°F (21-29°C) for optimal growth.
    • Plant them in well-draining, fertile soil with a pH between 6.0 and 6.8.
  2. Variety Selection:
    • Choose red bell pepper varieties suitable for your climate and growing conditions. Varieties like ‘California Wonder,’ ‘Red Knight,’ or ‘Ace’ are popular choices.
  3. Planting Time:
    • Start red capsicum seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last expected frost in your area.
    • Transplant seedlings outdoors when the soil temperature consistently reaches at least 65°F (18°C).
  4. Planting Depth and Spacing:
    • Plant seedlings about 18-24 inches apart in rows spaced 24-36 inches apart.
    • Ensure the top of the root ball is level with the soil surface when transplanting.
  5. Sunlight:
    • Red capsicum plants require full sun exposure for at least 6-8 hours a day.
  6. Watering:
    • Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water deeply and regularly, especially during dry periods.
    • Mulch around the plants to retain moisture and suppress weed growth.
  7. Fertilization:
    • Before planting, enrich the soil with compost or well-rotted organic matter.
    • Apply a balanced fertilizer or side-dress with a nitrogen-rich fertilizer during the growing season as needed.
  8. Support and Pruning:
    • Provide support to the plants with stakes or cages as they grow to prevent them from toppling over under the weight of peppers.
    • Pinch off any small shoots or suckers to encourage larger fruit production.
  9. Pest and Disease Management:
    • Monitor for pests such as aphids, caterpillars, or mites. Use organic pest control methods or suitable insecticides if needed.
    • Maintain good garden hygiene and proper airflow to minimize the risk of diseases.
  10. Harvesting:
    • Red capsicum peppers are typically ready for harvest 60-80 days after transplanting.
    • Harvest when the peppers reach full size, turn red, and are firm with glossy skin.
    • Use pruning shears to cut the peppers from the plant, leaving a short stem attached.

By providing the right conditions, care, and attention to watering, sunlight, and soil quality, you can cultivate flavorful and vibrant red capsicum in your garden.
