    Some times when bell peppers do not bear fruit, it is because they are missing out on calcium. Like tomatoes, peppers like calcium. You can get it as a bone meal at the nursery OR puree egg shells (not just crush them). I put them in a food processor or blender and really grind them up small until they are like powder, then add water and pour them on the tomatoes and peppers.

  • Did they flower? Maybe not enough pollination for the peppers to grow

    They may need bone meal (or we puree egg shells to powder) for calcium. Also, we add 2 Tbs of Epsom salts in a gallon of water for them too.
