Pepper Chocolate Bell (75 Days)

Looking for a fresh twist on a garden classic? Chocolate Bell delivers stunning, cola-red–coloured flesh that’s exceptionally sweet, rich, and delicious. These beautiful peppers add a unique pop of colour to salads, salsas, and cooked dishes, and their sweetness pairs especially well with ingredients like dried cherries.

The medium-sized, semi-bell-shaped fruit ripen very early, making this variety perfect for northern climates or anyone who loves early peppers. Chocolate Bell is sweeter than most bell peppers and produces reliably throughout the season.

A unique, flavour-packed pepper that brings colour, sweetness, and early harvests to the garden.

Planting Instructions
Start seed indoors 6-8 weeks before transplanting out to the garden. Cover seeds with 1/4 in. of soil. Firm soil over seed. Keep moist but not waterlogged. To germinate maintain a soil temperature of 22°C. Seed should germinate in 10-14 days. Once seeds have sprouted, 14-16 hours of light per day is essential. Once plants have reached 5 in. transplant to 3 in. peat pots. Plants will develop better with a growing temperature of 17°C until transplanting out. 

Pro Tip: Fertilize weekly with Liquid Seaweed Fertilizer for strong root development. Do not transplant out till night temperatures are warm.
