Sweet pepper 'Doux d'espagne'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Doux d'espagne 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 Doux d'espagne 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.

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