Comments (10)Wonderful! I have a question for you, the Edamame that you get in the sushi bars, what exactly is that and do you have that on your list? I would be interested in ANY of the following, what ever is easiest for you: Jackson Wonder Lima Blue Lake Pole Bean Kentucky Wonder Pole Bean Florida Broadleaf Mustard Hybrid #7 Spinach Sweet Spanish Onion Ruby Red Swiss Chard Detroit Dark Red Beet Dixie Speckled Bush Lima Henderson Bush Lima...See MoreNo fruit from pepper plants / Pepper plant ID
Comments (3)Hey, Owen. I don't know if you'll see this, but I think I have a guess as to why your plants aren't fruiting.... first of all, are they flowering? If not, there might be some other issue. But if they are....the flowers need to be pollinated before they'll make fruit. If the plants spend all their time indoors, away from pollinators, you'll need to do the pollinating yourself. I don't quite know how you'd do that...in biology class they had us use a small paintbrush and spread pollen between flowers, but I don't know how well it'd work. Can you put the plants outside in the summer, so that some bees might come by and help you out? Best, Lara...See Morestrange flowers on my pepper plants and no fruit.

Comments (4)Sorry I didn't get back to the thread sooner. I'll take a couple photos and post them. I haven't checked under the leaves for critters, but other than that I haven't seen evidence when working around the plants. It has been a weird year weather wise and the bugs have been busy. We had a massive Japanese beetle infestation on one single tree (a linden) which has never happened before....See Moremosesong
