Sweet pepper "Lemon Dream".
An early, high-yielding sweet pepper variety. Fruits are small, up to 8 cm long; when ripe they turn bright yellow and contain few seeds.
Suitable for growing both in greenhouses and outdoors. Plants are compact, about 45 cm tall, which makes them ideal for pot growing.
The fruits are great fresh, in salads, for preserving or stewing, and they are perfect for grilling.
* Pepper seedlings: with pricking out or without?
Peppers don’t handle transplanting well when they are young, so don’t rush to prick them out until they have 5–6 true leaves. It’s better to sow them right away into fairly large containers (at least 0.5 L) and grow them without pricking out at all—then transplant them straight to their final place.
The older the plant, the easier it tolerates transplanting. And since pepper (just like tomato) is a perennial in its native climate, you can easily move it from the garden to the city: transplant it into a large flowerpot and take it home.
There it will finish flowering and continue ripening the fruits, but in early November it will start dropping leaves. During this rest period, water very sparingly.
A couple of months after New Year, the pepper will come back to life, turn green, and bloom quickly—at that time it needs generous feeding and watering.
You can bring it back to the garden already with fruit set and harvest 2–3.5 months earlier. This cycle can be repeated up to three times.

Did you know... bell pepper lecho is a delicious appetizer and a perfect side dish.
Remove seeds and membranes from 2–2.5 kg of sweet peppers, wash them and cut into slices.
Put 2 kg of red tomatoes through a meat grinder, simmer briefly, strain, then add 1–2 tablespoons of salt. You can also add 0.4 kg of onion passed through a grinder and lightly sautéed. Mix the onion with the peppers, pack into jars, and pour over boiling tomato juice.
