Mulch well and water evenly, because blossom end rot and bitter fruit both trace back to swings between soaked and bone-dry soil. Peppers often drop flowers during 95-degree July stretches and then set a heavy second crop in September, so keep them fed and watered through the lull instead of pulling them.
