I had a similar problem last year with my sweet peppers, only got two or three from each of my sweet pepper plants, so I'm trying a different variety this year. Trying Corni di Toro to see if I can get better results.

I'm a big fan of spicy foods so I grow mostly hot varieties. Serrano is a favorite, love to use it for salsa verde. Trying a bunch of new varieties this year, only 4 out of 10 plants are one's I've grown before, two of those are Serrano plants. Hoping to find some new favorites this year.
