Sow seeds about 1\/4 inch deep in a seed-starting mix and keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Provide warmth and bright light for strong germination and healthy seedlings. Once the danger of frost has passed and soil temperatures are warm, transplant seedlings outdoors into a sunny, well-drained location.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWater regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during flowering and fruit development. Mulching around plants can help retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly when plants begin to set fruit. Harvest peppers when they reach full size and have turned bright red for the sweetest flavor, or earlier for a milder green pepper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e25 Red Cherry Sweet Pepper seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67726884012342,"sku":"BOTAN4-163","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7658110464_4b1m.jpg?v=1791980268","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/red-cherry-sweet-pepper-seeds-small-round-heirloom-vegetable-25-seeds","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
