Sow seeds about 1\/4 inch deep in a seed-starting mix and keep them warm (75–85°F) and consistently moist until germination. Once seedlings have true leaves and nighttime temperatures stay above 50°F, harden them off and transplant outdoors in full sun. Space plants 12–18 inches apart in well-drained soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWater regularly to keep soil evenly moist, especially during flowering and fruiting. Mulch to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly; too much nitrogen can reduce fruiting. Harvest peppers when they reach full size and color for the best flavor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e250mg of Lumbre hot pepper seeds (\u003cem\u003eCapsicum annuum\u003c\/em\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67824781164854,"sku":"FOLIA2-1246","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.6533465077_4di9.jpg?v=1793004615","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/lumbre-hot-pepper-seeds-250mg-capsicum-annuum-compact-plant","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
