This review is from: Grow the Best Peppers: Storey's Country Wisdom Bulletin A-138 (Storey Publishing Bulletin) (Paperback)
I like this little book. I come back to it now and again for stuff I forgot. It covers basic things like spacing, starting peppers indoors, disease, harvesting, storage, and some information like species, classifications, days to harvest etc. It is not a big book. It's more of a pamphlet. (32 total pages) Hence the reasonable price. It is not going to be a book that would cover more then what you might 'google' on the internet. However, it is handy, and an easy read.

This review is from: Grow the Best Peppers: Storey's Country Wisdom Bulletin A-138 (Storey Publishing Bulletin) (Paperback)
I am an urban gardener and I have been very lucky with my last 9 harvest EXCEPT for my peppers. Whether it be a sweet bell or a spicy Chili pepper I have always come up short on these plants while the rest of my garden seemed to thrive. I love to cook and I love spice, so my disappointment each year has grown into more and more frustration, I had even tried the pre-potted peppers at the garden store. Still no peppers. I purchased this little book in hopes of finding out why, and sure enough, I did. Peppers are a finicky bunch, and I was not paying close enough attention to the needs of the plant. This book, although small, is very informative and had some very good information. Like the fact that a pepper plant can be self pollinating and in some cases may need help (if number of plants is low) in order to produce the pepper. Now it does not give you the history of the pepper, or every little detail on how to grow, but any gardener with dirty nails will find this book useful. It goes into drainage, bringing peppers indoors, and soil type and food for your plants. A well rounded, useful little handbook
