Planting & Care

Start Yolo Wonder pepper seeds indoors 8 to 10 weeks before the last expected frost date. Sow seeds about 1/4 inch deep in a seed-starting mix and keep the medium warm and evenly moist; germination typically occurs within 7 to 14 days. Once seedlings have several sets of true leaves and nighttime temperatures remain above 50°F, harden them off gradually and transplant into the garden or containers.

Peppers thrive in full sun with consistent moisture. Water regularly, allowing the top inch of soil to dry slightly between waterings, and mulch to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Fertilize lightly when plants begin to flower. Harvest peppers when they reach full size and are firm; leave fruits on the plant longer for red, fully ripened peppers with enhanced sweetness.
