Red and Yellow Sweet Pepper Seeds

Bell Pepper.
Sow indoors from mid January to March
Sweet Peppers need a long growing season.
They flourish in a sunny, sheltered position on a south facing wall, in fertile, well-drained soil or grown in a green-house, in pots or in the ground.
Fill small cells or trays with a good sterile seed compost and sow the seeds on the surface.
'Just cover' with a fine sprinkling of sieved compost or vermiculite.
Keep the compost moist - don't let the top of the compost dry out (a common cause of germination failure).
If you wish, spray the surface with a dilute copper-based fungicide.
Cover the pot or tray with plastic or place in a heated propagator, south facing window or a warm greenhouse.
The ideal temperature is around 22°C (72°F). They can be slow to germinate from 21 to 28 days.
Remove the cover as soon as seedlings appear.
Grow the plants in 50x50cm spacings.
The fruit are ready to be harvested from July to October.
