Planting & Care
Start Yolo Wonder seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last expected frost. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in a sterile seed-starting mix, keep moist, and provide warmth (70-85°F) for best germination. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant into individual pots and grow on in a sunny location. Harden off plants gradually before setting them in the garden after all danger of frost has passed.
Set transplants 18-24 inches apart in full sun and well-drained soil. Water regularly to keep soil evenly moist but not waterlogged, and mulch to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly when plants begin to flower. Harvest peppers when they reach full size; for red ripe peppers, allow them to mature on the plant. Monitor for common pests and diseases as needed.
