Worldwide new plant pod testing - Red Sweet Pepper

Hi, Click & Growers!

About a year ago we recruited 5 of you to be our at home testers, agreeing to be the guinea pigs for new and up-and-coming plant pods we are considering launching! Our testers grow potential new plant pods around the world in different climates and locations with different light and temperature levels, helping us find the plants that can withstand any environmental conditions and be brought to all of you promising the highest yield and growth. With their help, we have tested and launched Rosemary and Dill. Also, Black Pansy, Piri Piri chili and Plain Parsley will be available soon!

In exchange for being testers, they post weekly updates with photos in our Gardeners forum so all of you can see and share any helpful tips and see what new plant we are testing!

Our five testers are now starting to test Red Sweet Pepper - a plant with highly ornamental flowers and fruits, packed with vitamins A and C!

They will be sharing their weekly photos and updates in the comments of this post, so if you’re interested in staying up to date, check back!

Day 7 (27 December 2018) - Just got back to the office after the Christmas break. Two of the red sweet peppers have sprouted tiny leaves! For the further one on the right, I can see a small green stem; the leaves should be popping up quite soon.
