i did not know there is a "regular" marconi, i thought there was just the giant marconi. i have grown the giant marconi (red) and the corno do toro (red) and the peppers are pretty much the same - huge (10" long) and very sweet. plants are 5' and taller.
as far as a request for an early red, gypsy produces a lot of peppers, hybrid, is early about 70 dtm but that's yellowish green, then they turn orange and then red.
