How to grow Sweet pepper 'Ferrari'

  • Full Sun

  • Medium

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Ferrari 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. Ferrari requires a potting mix, loamy and silty soil with a ph of 5.5 - 7.5 - it grows best in weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil.

Growing Ferrari from seed

Look to ensure a distance 0.98 inches (2.5 cm) between seeds when sowing - bury at a depth of at least 0.25 inches (0.64 cm) deep. Soil temperature should be kept higher than 20°C / 68°F to ensure good germination.

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

Transplanting Ferrari

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