How to Sow
- For best results, sow pepper seeds indoors from late Winter onwards, so the plants have a long summer of growth
- Sow seeds individually, approx 2 per cell or small pot, cover with a thin layer of compost and water
- Seeds may take approx. 2 weeks before germination
Plant Care
- 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
AllotMe’s Tips
- Pinch out the top of pepper plants once they're about 8inches tall to encourage more fruit, and a less top-heavy plant
- Pepper plants are best grown in a greenhouse if possible
- Don't forget to stake your plants for support once mature
