Peppers
Sow indoors from February to March, ¼ inch deep.
Keep well watered, and transplant outside only after all danger of
late Spring frost is past, as peppers are highly susceptible to frost.
Peppers love warmth, but also appreciate some shade as well, as too
much sun tends to burn the developing veggie.
Providing shade amongst other plants, or overhead with an umbrella or
lattice will work just fine.
Fertilize bi-weekly with a good all-purpose liquid fertilizer, but
don't apply too much per dose!!
If you find that the peppers are too small, nip off a few per plant,
and this allows the growth to go to the main developers.
Days to maturity: 60 to 72 days.
