What is the difference between a green pepper and black pepper?

Olives grow on olive trees in Spain, Italy, Greece, and the US. The black (ripe) olives have a stronger, more pungent taste than green olives. The reason that we don't taste the bitterness of the black olives (when we buy them in a can) is because most of the oil and flavor is taken out, when marinated in water with a slight bit of vinegar and just a very small amount of salt. The green olives that we buy in the jar are marinated in water with a bit of vinegar and lots of brine salt, and often stuffed with pimentos. The brine salt and vinegar kills the bitterness of the olives; this is why in the US when you taste green or black olives , you usually can't taste the original authentic flavor. Another difference is the curing. Olives are cured in brine (salt and water). A green olive is picked early so it remains green after curing. A black olive stays on the tree longer and is black. It is black when cured, too.

How many times a day should you water a green pepper plant?

I grow several different kinds of peppers in containers. You need soil that drains well. Planting in soil with poor drainage gives peppers a bitter taste. You might have to add some sand since a lot of the potting soils on the market today don't drain well. It's easier to over water than under water. Just watch the plant for signs of wilting (sometimes they wilt because it's just plain out hot). Dig down just a little and see how much moisture there is. I water about every other day when there's no rain. I'm in the USA, Moultrie GA. When using chlorinated water you need to add a little Epsom Salts from time to time. As the chlorine builds up the leaves will start to loose their dark green color and turn a little yellow. Pepper production drops off when it happens. The Epsom Salts will solve the problem.
