Planting & Care

Start seeds indoors in a warm, sunny location several weeks before the last expected frost, sowing about 1/4 inch deep in a moist seed-starting mix. Keep the medium consistently moist but not soggy, and provide warmth to encourage germination. Once seedlings have developed several true leaves and outdoor temperatures have warmed, harden them off gradually before transplanting into the garden.

Space plants about 18 to 24 inches apart in full sun and well-drained soil. Water regularly to keep soil evenly moist, and mulch to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Feed lightly through the season and harvest peppers when they reach the desired color and size.
