A Sunny Location Is Important For Peppers & Eggplants

Make sure your raised beds or large grower containers are in a sunny location for peppers and eggplants. These veggies prefer full sun to promote a good harvest...and don't forget to add a stake for support as the plants begin to grow larger!

Note: *Be sure to stake your peppers and trellis your cucumbers for added support. Remember to feed with E.B. Stone Organic Tomato & Vegetable Food and water regularly throughout the growing season. We recommend using 100% E.B. Stone Organic Raised Bed Mix, which is ready to use right our of the bag.
