Planting & Care

Start Anaheim pepper seeds indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last expected frost date. Sow seeds about 1/4 inch deep in a moist seed-starting mix and keep the medium consistently warm and evenly moist. Germination can be slow, so patience and steady warmth help. Once seedlings have several sets of true leaves and outdoor temperatures have warmed, harden them off gradually before transplanting into the garden.

Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil and water regularly to keep plants evenly moist, especially during flowering and pod development. Mulching helps conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Feed lightly with a balanced fertilizer as needed, and harvest pods when they reach full size and desired color for fresh use, roasting, or stuffing.
