Growing Instructions
Seed Starting: Start indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in seed-starting mix. Bottom-water in a tray if possible.
Transplanting: Transplant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Space plants 18-24 inches apart.
Sunlight: Provide full sun exposure for 6-8 hours per day.
Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water at the base of the plant to avoid wetting the foliage.
Support: Use stakes or cages to support the tall, sturdy plants.
Harvesting: Pick peppers when they are firm, fully grown, and ripened to red for optimal sweetness.
Gardening Tip
Corno di Toro peppers thrive in nutrient-rich soil. Adding organic compost before planting will boost growth and yield.
