Nature is an amazing thing. Anything that you need you can find it in nature. Not all of us have the skills necessary to harvest all of its wonders, but we can try from time to time to see if our hands are up to the task.
About two months ago I posted about growing bell peppers at home. I got inspired by a Chinese Youtuber and teh fact that I love bell peppers. They are very nutricious, and caring for them was a way for me to channel my energy towards something else besides my work, my illness and my home life.
They where planted at the end of January of this year, carelessly I have to say, but the grew just fine. So, from time to time, I watered them and filled the pot with fresh soil to help them get the nutrients they needed. By the end of May they where flowers already!
I was worried that some of the leafs where turning yellow and I thought it was because of the heat, so I started to water them every day early in the morning or at sunset. But I didn't had hope, I thought that that was it. Then, at the beginning of July, the fruit started to bloom. And fifteen days later...
Fresh, savory, delicious. We made a salad with it, and I was like: This is themost beautiful Bell Pepper I have ever harvested!
The plant gave 4 more, about the same size, but that was it. It hasn't produce more.
Right now it looks like this....
It has a few flowers and a little bulb, but I don't now if that will grow to full size. What I do know is that I will definetly will plant Bell Peppers again, and hopefully, I will do better this next time.
