These 200 Chilli Pepper Seeds are an excellent option for growing flavorful produce indoors. With a compact structure, vibrant fruit, and straightforward care needs, they are a great addition to your indoor planting routine.
- Soil requirements: Hot pepper seeds thrive in well-draining, loamy soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 6.8. The soil should be rich in organic matter to support healthy growth.
- Sunlight needs: Hot pepper plants require full sun, which means they need at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight each day.
- Watering requirements: Water the plants regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. It's important to water deeply and allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings to prevent root rot.
- Planting season: The best time to plant hot pepper seeds is in the spring, after the last frost date. In warmer climates, they can also be planted in late summer for a fall harvest.
- Depth and spacing: Plant the seeds about 1/4 inch deep and space them 18-24 inches apart in rows that are 24-36 inches apart. This spacing allows for adequate air circulation and room for the plants to grow.
- Germination time: Hot pepper seeds typically germinate within 7-14 days under optimal conditions. Maintaining a soil temperature of 75-85°F (24-29°C) can help speed up the germination process.
- Maturity time: Hot pepper plants usually reach maturity and are ready for harvest in 60-90 days, depending on the variety.
- Harvesting time: The best time to harvest hot peppers is in the early morning when the temperatures are cooler. This helps to preserve the peppers' flavor and texture.
- Harvesting tips: Use sharp scissors or pruning shears to cut the peppers from the plant, leaving a small portion of the stem attached. Handle the peppers carefully to avoid bruising. Store harvested peppers in a cool, dry place or refrigerate them to extend their shelf life. For long-term storage, consider drying or freezing the peppers.
