Not all pepper varieties are compatible, so it's important to know which plants can be grown next to each other.
Pepper is valued for its taste and aroma, and its nutrients. But the vegetable will lose some of its benefits if you break one rule.
Summer residents not only follow crop rotation rules, but also plant different varieties correctly.
As for peppers, you can't grow hot and sweet varieties next to each other. They are self-pollinating, but bees or bumblebees will still land on them.
As a result, insects transfer pollen from hot varieties to sweet ones, and vice versa. And this leads to a change in the taste and aroma of the fruit.
For example, when the harvest hits the table, you may be unpleasantly surprised by the spiciness when biting into what is considered a sweet fruit. The pepper looks like the right variety, but the taste is very different and rather indicates that it belongs to a different variety.
The warning is relevant for open ground and greenhouses. At home, you can grow sweet and spicy ones nearby, it will not affect the taste in any way.
