Beginner success with Bell Pepper — here is what helped

As a complete beginner I was nervous about starting with Bell Pepper. It turned out to be more forgiving than I expected, as long as I paid attention to feeding with a high-potassium fertiliser once flowering begins.

I grow mine in a grow bag on a paved patio or balcony which is working really well. satisfaction of harvesting food you grew yourself was a genuine surprise — I didn't expect it to look or perform like that. peak harvest in mid to late summer has been the highlight so far. My biggest mistake early on was ignoring aphid colonies on brassicas and soft growth, which I'd recommend addressing immediately.
