2. Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep in seed-starting trays or pots filled with a well-draining seed-starting mix.

Germination:

• Germination usually occurs within 7-14 days when kept at a constant temperature of 70-80°F and provided with adequate moisture.

Transplanting:

1. Transplant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed to at least 60°F.
2. Space plants 18-24 inches apart in rows that are 24-36 inches apart to allow ample space for growth.

Care and Maintenance:

• Watering: Water pepper plants regularly, providing approximately 1-2 inches of water per week, either through rainfall or irrigation.
• Mulching: Mulch around plants to help retain soil moisture and suppress weeds.
• Support: Support plants with stakes or cages as they grow to prevent breakage from heavy fruit loads.
• Harvesting: Harvest peppers when they reach the desired size and color, typically when they are firm, glossy, and fully mature.

Happy gardening!
