Peppers (bell)

Optimal Storage: Cool (45-50F) and humid (90% RH) will keep Peppers for 2-3 weeks. Typical refrigerators are too cold and dry for long storage.

Similar to Tomatoes, Peppers can continue to ripen and change color after harvest. Room temperature will speed this process as will storing near fruits emitting ethylene gas (e.g. a ripe banana, apple, or tomato).
