Sow seeds 1\/4 inch deep in a sterile seed-starting mix and keep consistently moist at 75-85°F for best germination. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant into larger pots or harden off and move to the garden after all danger of frost has passed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Mulch to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly when plants begin to flower. Harvest peppers when they reach full size and desired color—green for milder flavor or red for sweeter, more mature taste.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e25 Large Cherry Hot Pepper seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67739789721910,"sku":"EDNA-579","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7736209702_pwis.jpg?v=1792115904","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/large-cherry-hot-pepper-seeds-heirloom-red-chili-for-stuffing-pickling-25-seeds","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
