Sweet pepper 'FAR 118'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that FAR 118 is thought of as tender, so remember to wait until your soil is warm and the night time temperature is well above freezing before moving outside. Planting FAR 118 in potting mix, loamy and silty soil with a ph of between 5.5 and 7.5 is ideal for as it does best in weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil.

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 0.98 inches (2.5 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.25 inches (0.64 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 20°C / 68°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing FAR 118 about 60 days before your last frost date.

As FAR 118 is tender, ensure temperatures are mild enough to plant out - wait until after your last frost date to be on the safe side.
