Planting & Care
Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in a sterile seed-starting mix and maintain a soil temperature of 75-85°F (24-29°C) for best germination. Keep the medium consistently moist but not waterlogged. Once seedlings have developed true leaves and all danger of frost has passed, harden them off gradually and transplant outdoors in full sun. Space plants 18-24 inches apart in well-drained soil.
Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, but avoid overwatering. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly with a balanced fertilizer every few weeks during the growing season. White Habanero peppers typically mature 90-100 days after transplanting. Harvest when the peppers reach their full size and turn creamy white for peak flavor and heat.
