can anyone suggest any varieties of pepper that are small, sweet, and very productive? I'm thinking ahead to next year, and would like to try something new.

Hi kilda,

I wish I had a good answer for you. This is my first year of having any success in growing peppers. The one that is doing the best so far is an heirloom hot pepper which I bought from a nursery, but my sweet peppers and other hot peppers are finally starting to bloom. They seem to have a lot of flowers on them, but no fruit that I've spied so far. The sweet one is Ozark Giant, the hots are Chocolate (hot) and Red Mushroom.

When you say small, do you mean the size of the plant or the fruit? Small pepper fruits tend to be hot.
