I love fall. I love the cool weather and the colorful beauty of trees, flowers and everything else. Living in the Southeastern part of the USA has its advantage, we have hot summers and usually mild winters, thus our state is ideal for 12-month gardening. Fall gardening can be done and is possible. One of the top fall veggies that grows during fall is the sweet peppers.

Growing your own sweet peppers is easy. You can have them in pots. Sweet peppers needs soil that is rich in organic materials. Using Miracle-Gro Organic Choice Potting mix will be perfect for this project. This type of potting mix is ideal for all kinds of potted plants and it feeds plants for up to 6 months. The secret to a successful sweet pepper gardening is to water regularly and be sure to water at the base not the leaves. Pepper plants should never dry out. You can harvest your sweet peppers either ripe from the vine or pick them green and let them ripen indoors. When you have harvested your sweet peppers you can try this recipe below. I found it in Pinterest.


ROASTED SWEET PEPPERS
Instructions
  1. Select firm sweet peppers; wash. Halve peppers lengthwise; remove stems, seeds, and membranes.
  2. Place pepper halves, cut side down, on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake in a 425 degree F oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until skins are blistered and dark. (Or, broil 4 to 5 inches from heat for 8 to 10 minutes.)
  3. Carefully bring the foil up and around the pepper halves to enclose. Let stand about 15 minutes or until cool enough to handle.
  4. Use a sharp knife to loosen the edges of the skins from the pepper halves; gently and slowly pull off the skin in strips. Discard skin.


I encourage you all to check out Miracle-Gro Facebook page and like the page. You can connect with your fellow gardeners and you can also share your stories about gardening through this page. It is a great place to find people who has the same interests with you. Together we can Find beauty in the Fall.

Aw, can this roasted sweet peppers be eaten? I like peppers in a dish but only as a spice. I'll surely be planting some once I go live with my mother this 20th.

Bell peppers are rich in vitamin C...I like it when it's roasted too.

I got some from a friends garden yesterday. I wish I can grow veggies more so I will just harvest when I want to cook :-)

I love bell pepper more than any vegetables. Oh, I love the colours in Fall but not the cold weather. Fall here tends to get colder I can't go out without bundling up anymore.

I've never had roasted peppers before. This is a great idea. I'll check out our local home depot if they have sweet pepper seeds.
