Chili pepper 'Black Cuban'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Black Cuban is thought of as tender, so it is really important to ensure that the outside temperature is well above freezing before planting or moving outdoors. Black Cuban requires a loamy and sandy soil with a ph of 7.0 - 8.5 - it grows best in neutral soil to weakly alkaline soil.

Look to ensure a distance 1.95 inches (5.0 cm) between seeds when sowing - bury at a depth of at least 0.2 inches (0.5 cm) deep. Soil temperature should be kept higher than 18°C / 64°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Black Cuban about 38 days before your last frost date.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Black Cuban is a tender plant.
