I have a couple of issues with my bell peppers. I bought two starts that have both been flowering 3-4 weeks and one of the plants has a good size pepper on it. The plants look good, but aren't producing. Could this be a fertilizer issue or more of a pollination issue? Is there anything I can do to promote more production?
Also, I have two bell pepper plants that I started from seed that haven't flowered at all. They are a bit smaller than the starts I bought from the nursery. I wonder if one of the issues is a rogue cucumber that has taken off. It is not growing where I wanted it to do so. I didn't want to get rid of it because it is the only cucumber that took off, but it must have been from a seed that randomly found its way to the ground. I have another cucumber that I bought from a start that is doing well too, in the spot I wanted it to grow.
Is the rogue cucumber limiting the sun for the bell peppers or taking too many nutrients? Should I remove the cucumber? I have links a couple of pictures to illustrate the situation.
