Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

No special preparation is required for capsicum seeds. However, soaking seeds in water for 1-2 hours before planting can help to speed up germination.

Sowing:

Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date in your area.
Plant seeds in seed trays or pots filled with seed-starting mix, about 1/4 inch deep.
Keep the soil consistently moist until seeds germinate.
Once seedlings have developed their first true leaves, they can be transplanted outdoors.

Germination:

Maintain a temperature of around 70-80°F (21-27°C) for optimal germination.
Capsicum seeds typically germinate within 7-14 days under ideal conditions.

Transplanting:

Transplant seedlings outdoors after the danger of frost has passed and soil temperatures have warmed to at least 60°F (15°C).
Space plants 18-24 inches apart in rows that are 24-36 inches apart, depending on the variety.

Care and Maintenance:

Water capsicum plants regularly, aiming to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Provide support for larger varieties with stakes or cages to prevent branches from breaking under the weight of fruit.
Monitor for pests such as aphids, spider mites, and caterpillars, and treat as necessary using organic methods.
Harvest capsicums when they reach the desired size and color. They can be picked when green or left to mature to red or other colors depending on the variety.

Happy gardening!
