Chili pepper 'Black Knight'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Black Knight is thought of as half hardy, so although it can survive a small mild cold snap, it is wise to ensure that this plant is protected from frost damage. Ideally plant in loamy and sandy soil and try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 7.0 and 8.5 as Black Knight likes to be in neutral soil to weakly alkaline soil.

Sow 0.2 inches (0.5 cm) deep with a guideline distance of 1.95 inches (5.0 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 18°C / 64°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Black Knight 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 Knight is a half hardy plant.
