Growing Information
Growing Baron Hybrid Bell Pepper
‘Baron,’ formerly known as ‘Red Beauty,’ is a hybrid bell pepper prized for its early maturity, wide adaptability, and sweet flavor. Thick-walled fruits with smooth shoulders reach the mature green stage early before ripening to a brilliant red.
Start ‘Baron’ indoors for transplanting. Plant seeds about ¼ to ½ inch deep and space plants 18 to 24 inches apart. Grow in full sun. This heat-tolerant variety performs reliably across a wide range of growing conditions.
Ready to harvest in about 68 days, pick peppers green for an earlier harvest or allow them to mature to bright red for maximum sweetness.
Sweet, thick walled, and dependable, ‘Baron’ is excellent for fresh eating, stuffing, slicing, grilling, and everyday cooking.

Thirty seeds and one seedling. Thirty replacement seeds,one seedling. Some of y'all's seeds grow just fine. Some are not fit to plant. I'm a certified master gardener. My germination process is the standard. Your seeds ARE not. I've used your seeds for a number of years. Had some bad seeds in the past, but not like this. Your guarantee is useless when you replace bad seeds with bad seeds. Twice the time and twice the effort for NOTHING. Won't happen again, too many other seed companies.

Low germination rate (i have four plants). All the tomato seeds germinated at an extremely high rate (90%) and were planted 2/26 and maintained under the same conditions (heating pad, grow light, timer, humidity control).
Same with the eggplants which only have 2 germinate.

This variety isn't as big of a producer as the New Ace, but these peppers are heavy, super thick walled and very good flavor. None of ours turned red, we ate them all green! I dug a plant up in the fall, pruned it and is hanging out under grow lights this winter. It's doing well and hope to transplant to the garden when it warms up. Will be planting these again in 2025.

The seed identified as producing poblano rather than bell pepper has been removed from their inventory. A new supply of Baron Pepper in now being sold.
