🤔 I would guess also that the plant may be genetically disposed to having small fruit. If it is a hybrid, and since peppers are self-pollinating I believe, a mistake may have been made during the crossing work. I think that this mistake happens quite often and all of the genes of the maternal...

I was reading yesterday and this morning about a country in Europe and its history during feudal times. The author noted that nearly the entire population were either tenet farmers (serfs), clergy or the aristocracy (lords of the manors). Merchants traveled from place to place selling their...
