I'm working on my sweet bell list for next year and saw Yellow Monster Sweet pepper and was thinking about getting it and then started reading reviews and seen post that Yellow Corno di Toro was about same size and much sweeter than Yellow Monster.
Has anybody grown Yellow Corno di Toro before? Your thoughts on it? |

If it helps your decision and since you are looking at next year, I'm growing Yellow Monster now (plant is young and no buds yet) but if I get peppers, I can give you YM seeds.

Both the yellow and the red are good productive peppers but they are not anything like a bell pepper.

Corno is the second sweetest I have tried. The crunch sweet orange I thought was a bit sweeter and a lot more prolific.

I'm growing a hybrid of a yellow corno di toro thus year- "mama mia" from tomato growers supply. Very prolific, huge plant; I've plucked at least a dozen thus far and it's still loaded. It's the one closest to the camera in this shot:

I had Golden Treasure this year. It is very similar to Corno di Toro Yellow. I like them both.

I like Golden Treasure, as well. Very productive plants.

I grew literally hundreds of sweet peppers and Golden Treasure is one of the best. Of course part of its charm for me was earliness. It comes in a couple weeks earlier than Yellow Corno peppers and was more productive and sweeter...A great pepper.
