""""How can we identify Capsicum Male and Female """"




The Male Bell  Peppers  are taller and thin, they only have 3 bumps.  They are not as sweet but hold up better in heat  and are better for cooking. These are perfect for stews, dips, and cooking.

The Female Bell Peppers  and more round, they have 4 bumps on the bottom. The female peppers contain more seeds, but are sweeter and better for eating raw.  So these are better for salads, veggie trays and sandwiches.






There is a simple method for identifying the gender of a bell pepper. Look on the underside of the pepper, the ones with four bumps are female and those with three bumps are male. The males are better for cooking



Capsicum  also known as peppers . Its species are native to the Americas, where they have been cultivated for thousands of years. In addition to use as spices and food vegetables, Capsicum species have also been used as medicines and lachrymatory agents.
