Has anyone grown these before?
I did a test on three different storebought seed starting mixes for peppers, and now I have a boatload of these growing. I'm curious how well they will produce.

I've grown it before. Nice producer of large, good tasting bells. Maybe it was my climate, but they didn't grow any bigger than other bells.

The only bell pepper that has grown bigger than Cal Wonder is the Big Bertha Bell Pepper. This is a hybrid ( one of few hybrids in my garden). My wife like them because their walls are thicker and she like to have stuffed peppers for supper.( i donot like them lol yeah get real lol.

Mmmmm, Stuffed peppers....That's what I'll do with the Quadrato Asti d'Giallo peppers if they grow as large here as they are supposed to.
Johno, I've never heard of Emerald Giant. Obviously, not a big seller up here, haha. Are they popular in AR??

I just had some stuffed peppers the other night, unfortunately the peppers came from the grocery store. They were still delicious. I always get my wife to use ripe ones. They are so much better ripe.
