Sow seeds 1\/4 inch deep in seed-starting mix, keep consistently moist, and provide warmth (75-85°F) for reliable germination. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant them into larger pots and gradually acclimate them to outdoor conditions after the danger of frost has passed. Space plants 18-24 inches apart in full sun and well-drained soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWater regularly to keep soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly with a balanced fertilizer every 4-6 weeks. Aji Mango peppers benefit from staking or caging as they can become heavy with fruit.
