Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

No special seed preparation is required for Thai Dragon Heirloom Chili Pepper seeds. However, you can soak the seeds in lukewarm water for 4-6 hours before planting to soften the seed coat and promote germination.

Sowing:

Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date in your area. Use seed trays or small pots filled with seed starting mix.
Plant seeds 1/4 inch (0.6 cm) deep in the soil, and lightly cover them with additional soil.
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.

Germination:

Seeds typically germinate within 7-14 days when kept at a constant temperature of around 70-80°F (21-27°C).
Once seedlings have developed several sets of true leaves and the risk of frost has passed, they can be transplanted outdoors.

Transplanting:

Transplant seedlings outdoors after the last frost date when the soil has warmed up and all danger of frost has passed.
Choose a sunny location with well-draining soil.
Space seedlings 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) apart in rows, with rows spaced 18-24 inches (45-60 cm) apart.

Care and Maintenance:

Water chili pepper plants regularly, ensuring the soil remains consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Mulch around plants to retain soil moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature.
Provide support for the plants as they grow by staking or using cages, especially if they become heavy with fruit.
Monitor for pests such as aphids, spider mites, and chili pepper maggots, and treat as necessary using organic methods.
Harvest chili peppers when they reach the desired size and color, typically 60-90 days after planting. Use scissors or garden shears to cut the peppers from the plant, leaving a short stem attached.

Happy gardening!
