Mini Belle Mix Sweet Pepper organic seeds (Capsicum annuum)
Capsicum annuum
Mini Belle Mix Sweet Pepper organic seeds (Capsicum annuum) This colourful mix produces small, sweet, bell-shaped peppers that ripen in several shades. Their compact size makes them an excellent choice for containers, small vegetable gardens, and fresh snacking straight from the harvest. The colourful fruit can also be served in salads, stuffed, or lightly roasted for an easy summer side dish. Their small size makes individual portions simple and lets gardeners pick only what is needed. This productive variety adds colour, sweetness, and versatility to homemade summer meals at home.
Sow these mini sweet pepper seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before transplanting. Plant them about 1.3 cm deep in a light seed-starting mix and keep the medium at 27 to 31°C until germination, which usually takes 7 to 21 days. Move seedlings into bright light after emergence. Harden them off gradually, then transplant after the soil has warmed and all risk of frost has passed. Keep the mix evenly moist without standing water during germination, then allow the surface to dry slightly between waterings after seedlings emerge.
Grow plants in full sun and fertile, well-drained soil. Water consistently without saturating the growing medium, especially during flowering and fruit development. Pick the first mini peppers once they reach the desired size to encourage continued production; allow later fruit to ripen fully for the widest range of colours and a sweet flavour. Check container-grown plants more often because their mix dries quickly in hot weather. Harvest with clean pruners to protect the branches and keep fruit in good condition. The packet contains 15 seeds for starting this colourful crop.
