Growing Tips for Organic Sweet Banana Pepper Seeds:

  1. Planting: Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date. Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep in a well-draining seed-starting mix. Maintain a consistent temperature of 70-85°F for optimal germination.
  2. Transplanting: Once seedlings have developed two sets of true leaves and all danger of frost has passed, transplant them outdoors. Space plants 18-24 inches apart in rows 24-36 inches apart.
  3. Soil: Prefers well-draining, fertile soil rich in organic matter. Amend soil with compost or well-rotted manure before planting to improve fertility. Maintain a soil pH between 6.0-7.0.
  4. Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but avoid overwatering. Water deeply once a week, more frequently during dry spells.
  5. Sunlight: Requires full sun (at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily) for best growth and fruit production.
  6. Fertilization: Feed with a balanced fertilizer or compost every 2-3 weeks during the growing season to encourage vigorous growth and a high yield.
  7. Harvesting: Harvest peppers when they reach a size of 4-6 inches and are bright yellow in color. You can also let them mature to orange-red for a sweeter flavor. Use sharp scissors or pruners to cut peppers from the plant, leaving a small portion of the stem attached.
