Use a good quality grow mix. Peppers are not very demanding but are subject to diseases especially bells. But in fertile soil and no diseases just tranplant when all danger of frost is well past, keep them weed free, and wait for the harvest. If you iirigate, be careful too little is better than too much. Non bells like Giant Marconi, Carmen etc are easier than bells. |
