Planting & Care
Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in seed-starting mix and keep soil temperature around 75-85°F (24-29°C) for optimal germination. Provide bright light and keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant them into larger pots or harden them off for the garden after the danger of frost has passed.
Golden Greek Pepperoncini plants thrive in full sun and well-drained soil. Water regularly, especially during dry spells, and mulch to retain moisture. Fertilize lightly once a month with a balanced fertilizer. Harvest peppers when they reach full size and are golden-yellow, typically 70-80 days after transplanting. Regular harvesting encourages more fruit production.
