A deciduous perennial shrub~ produces abundant sweet red berries. Goji berries are extremely high in antioxidants surpassing even blueberries!

Very cold hardy, purportedly surviving winters as cold as -10 d F. Self-fertile so you only need one plant to get started, however greater pollination will occur w/ additional plants.

Goji berries contain: 11 essential and 22 trace dietary minerals, 18 amino acids, 6 essential vitamins, 8 polysaccharides and 6 monosaccharides making goji berries one of the most nutrient dense foods man has discovered.

Start goji berry in spring after last frost date.
Once your seeds have germinated & tender plants are ready to go into the garden, plants prefer full day sun but will tolerate half-day sun. Or transplant to larger pots. Give plenty of room. Check soil ph. Prefers alkaline soil. Will make it in lightly acidic environ.

Hardy USDA z 6-9. Check your location to make sure they have a chance of surviving winters.
Seeds slow to germ usually 3 ~ 4 wks (depending on temps).

Plants need as much time to grow as possible. Goji go dormant in winter where the weather goes below freezing.

Beware! GREEN bell peppers are UNRIPE bell peppers & isn't likely to provide VIABLE seeds. There are very few varieties that produce bell peppers that ripen to green. Same for GREEN Jalapeno & most other pepper varieties. It only take minutes to check the variety & discover the color of the RIPE pepper.

They are smaller than a grape.

BTW, I'm in Florida. IMHO, if you're in a colder region, overwinter your plant at least the first year inside,
