How to Grow from Seeds

1. Start Seeds Indoors

Fill seed trays with quality seed-starting mix.

Plant seeds approximately ¼ inch deep.

Maintain temperatures between 75–85°F (24–29°C) for optimal germination.

Heat mats can improve germination speed and uniformity.

3. Provide Strong Light

After emergence, place seedlings under grow lights or in a bright sunny location.

Strong light helps develop sturdy stems.

4. Pot Up as Needed

Transplant seedlings into larger containers when several true leaves appear.

5. Harden Off

Gradually acclimate plants to outdoor conditions over 7–10 days before transplanting.

6. Plant Outdoors

Space plants approximately 18–24 inches apart.

Provide support if heavy fruit production causes branches to bend.

How to Care For

Sunlight

Full sun produces the highest yields and best fruit quality.

Watering

Maintain consistent soil moisture throughout the growing season.

Avoid allowing plants to alternate between extreme dryness and excessive moisture.

Soil

Peppers prefer fertile soil rich in organic matter with excellent drainage.

Fertilizing

Apply a balanced vegetable fertilizer during active growth.

Reduce excessive nitrogen once flowering begins to encourage fruit production.

Mulching

Mulch helps:

• Retain moisture
• Reduce weeds
• Regulate soil temperature
• Minimize soil splash

Harvesting

Harvest peppers green for a milder flavor or allow them to mature to deep red for maximum sweetness.

Regular harvesting encourages continued production.
