Seed Starting Instructions
When to Start: Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date.
How to Plant: Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in seed-starting mix and use bottom watering to ensure consistent moisture.
Germination: Maintain soil temperatures between 75-90°F for optimal germination success.
Growing Conditions
Transplanting: Move seedlings outdoors after the risk of frost has passed. Space plants 12-18 inches apart, as these compact plants grow well in containers or garden beds.
Sunlight Requirements: Thrives in full sun, requiring 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily.
Watering: Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy. Water at the base of the plant to avoid wet foliage and reduce disease risk.
Support: Use stakes or cages to support the plants as they grow and produce an abundance of fruit.
Harvesting Tips
Harvest peppers when they are firm, slender, and have turned a vibrant red or green, depending on your preferred level of heat and flavor. Picking regularly encourages more fruit production.
