Bolvadin Sarı sweet pepper was brought to our attention by the seed saver Mustafa Datlar of Afyon, Turkey. Plants produce large, yellow and conical peppers that have an upright growth habit. Fruits have medium thick walls that are juicy and delicious. Great sweet pepper for stuffing and frying.

- Growing tips: Start sweet pepper seeds indoors in seedling trays or small seedling pots with seed starting soil that has essential nutrients in it, 6-8 weeks prior to last frost. Keep the soil moist for quick germination. Make sure to keep the young pepper seedlings under good light to have strong plants with sturdy, healthy stems and leaves. Transplant after last frost in well-drained, fertile soil enrichened with compost and other amendments. Feed your sweet pepper plants with liquid fertilizer once every two weeks. Water regularly especially in flower stage. Mulch and always water at plant base to minimize disease. Some pepper varieties are taller than others and may need to be tied to a stake so that fruits don’t touch soil and rot.

Tasty and easy to grow. Not as big of a yield as banana peppers, but they break the banana pepper monotony.
