Organic 'Pantos' Pepper Seeds
Growing schedule: Sow seeds inside from February to March using a propagator, heating mat or lidded seed tray on a sunny windowsill. Pot on into larger pots as needed until temperatures are warm enough to transfer into a polytunnel or glasshouse in May.
Sowing depth: 1cm
Germination: Pepper seeds germinate best in warm soil (21 - 30°C) and so a heated propagator is the ideal place to start them off early in the year. In colder conditions, germination may be slower or less successful.
Planting distance: 50cm between plants; 70cm between rows
Growing conditions: Peppers need full sun, shelter and warmth. They are cold-sensitive and require high temperatures to grow well; so they aren't well suited to outdoor cultivation in Ireland. Peppers grow best in fertile, well-draining, slightly acidic soil containing plenty of organic matter. A well-balanced fertiliser such as Topmix Complete 4-3-7 or Biodigester Organic Plant Food 4-3-7 is ideal to prepare the ground.
Ongoing care: Once the first fruit has set, feed plants every week or two with a liquid feed high in potassium such as Vinasse Tomato and Plant Food.
Number of seeds: Each packet contains approximately 17 organic seeds, enough for 10 plants.
