Easy
Planting & Care Instructions:
- For best results, sow pepper seeds indoors from late Winter onwards, so the plants have a long summer of growth
Prepare cell trays or pots with multi-purpose compost
Sow seeds individually, approx 2 per cell or small pot
Cover seeds with a thin layer of compost and water
Seeds may take approx. 2 weeks before germination
Once seedlings are a few inches tall, they may be transplanted to larger pots
Pepper plants need the long warm days of the summer in order to fruit
Plants can be brought outside once warmer weather arrives or kept in a greenhouse / cold frame
