How to grow Chili pepper 'Yellow'

  • Full Sun

  • Medium

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Yellow is generally regarded as a half hardy plant, so it will need protecting in periods of cold weather. Yellow needs a loamy and sandy soil with a ph of 7.0 to 8.5 (neutral soil to weakly alkaline soil).

Growing Yellow from seed

Aim to sow 0.2 inches (0.5 cm) deep and try to ensure a gap of at least 1.95 inches (5.0 cm). For optimal germination, soil temperature should be a minimum of 18°C / 64°F.

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

Transplanting Yellow

Yellow is half hardy, so ensure you wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area before considering planting outside.
