Peppers are one of the brightest jewels of any vegetable garden. Whether you like sweet and juicy bell peppers or prefer a fiery scotch bonnet, these culinary classics are an easy grow, making them a perfect choice for beginner gardeners. If you want a healthy harvest, however, you'll need to know how (and when) to prune them properly.
Pruning peppers - also known as topping - is a great gardening trick to encourage production for an abundant yield. It's the sort of practice that will easily pass amateur growers by, but it's one of the things good gardeners do to make outdoor containers grow quicker. It's also something you should upkeep throughout most of the growing season but, the question is, when is it too late to prune pepper plants?
