Giant sweet bell peppers. Not a Guinness category, but just for fun.

The flower pots in the ground are filled with dry cow manure pellets. I water in the pots, so each time a bit washes down into the soil. The pots allow deeper watering which is important in a polytunnel where the high temperatures cause a lot of evaporation of surface moisture. I do the same for my tomato plants.

Excluded in the mini-patch tour where the giant field pumpkins, long gourds, long carrot, long beetroot and a few other plants here and there.
