Sow warm: soil at 24–29 °C
Start the seed indoors 8–10 weeks before the last frost and keep the soil at 24–29 °C until seedlings appear. We have no species seed specification for Capsicum baccatum yet, so this temperature comes from the variety notes for this item.
Planting out
Transplant once seedlings are established and frost has passed, 45–60 cm apart, in full sun and well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. Water regularly but avoid waterlogging, which leads to root disease.
A long season
Pods mature about 90–100 days after transplanting.
What you get: 5 seeds per packet. Keep any seed you do not sow sealed, cool and dry. We have no tested storage life or germination percentage for this packet and do not state one.
