How to Sow and Plant

Soak seeds in warm water for 12–24 hours to improve germination.

Sow seeds ¼ inch deep in seed trays or small pots with well‑drained, fertile soil.

Keep soil warm (24–30 °C) and evenly moist until seeds germinate (typically 7–21 days).

How to Grow

Provide full sun (6–8 hr/day), consistent watering, and well‑drained soil enriched with organic compost.

Thin seedlings to 18–24 inches apart in rows or containers.

Stake or support plants if needed as they develop fruit.

Tips

Start seeds indoors 8–10 weeks before the last frost.

Handle mature peppers with gloves — they are very hot.

Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
