Why are my green pepper plants all healthy and bushy, but few peppers? In fact, a lot of them are just now producing blossoms, and it’s getting colder here in Western Pa. 50 degrees overnight in fact!

We just did a second planting of snow peas and spinach. Also decided to take a chance on a second planting of pole beans, which are starting to come up nicely. I know the snow peas and spinach like cooler weather, but can we expect a crop of pole beans?

Try some Miracle Grow Bloom Booster Fert on those pepper plants - it is a 15-30-15. There are other brands of 15-30-15 the 30 number is Phosphorous and it helps roots and flowers grow and develop.
