Care and common questions
- Light: Bright light with some direct sun keeps Edible 'Sweet Pepper' full and colorful — a few hours of gentle sun is ideal, but avoid harsh midday sun.

- Humidity: Average household humidity is fine; it appreciates a little extra but doesn't need it.
- Temperature: Typical room temperatures (about 65–80°F). Keep it away from cold drafts and hot, dry vents.
- Soil: A good, well-draining potting mix in a pot with a drainage hole.
- Fertilizer: Feed lightly with a balanced houseplant fertilizer in spring and summer; pause in winter.
- Good to know: Give it as much bright, direct light as possible, with steady moisture and feeding, to flower and fruit.
- Care tip: Give it the right light and consistent watering, and Edible 'Sweet Pepper' stays full and healthy.
