Growing Tips
Start indoors well ahead of planting-out; peppers need warmth to germinate and grow steadily.
Harden off carefully and plant outside only when nights are reliably warm?avoid prolonged cool nights.
Keep soil evenly moist and nutrient-rich; compost plus a balanced organic fertilizer supports flowering and fruit set.
Heat helps: use a warm, sunny site; cloches or plastic mulch can boost temperatures in marginal summers.
Keep foliage dry where possible; good airflow helps reduce issues like bacterial leaf spot and fungal diseases.
Growing tip: For best results, plant at the recommended time for your climate and provide consistent moisture until seedlings are established.
