Growing Tips for Cayenne Golden Peppers
Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before your last frost date. Use a heat mat for optimal germination (75–85°F). Transplant outdoors in full sun once nighttime temps stay above 55°F. Space plants 18–24 inches apart in rich, well-drained soil.

Fertilize with compost or a balanced organic fertilizer every 2–3 weeks. Peppers prefer consistent watering but dislike soggy roots. Harvest when fully golden for peak flavor and drying quality.

Companion Planting Suggestions
Plant near basil, onions, or carrots for mutual pest defense and nutrient synergy. Avoid planting near fennel, which can stunt pepper growth.
