How to grow Sweet pepper 'Romanian'

  • Full Sun

  • Medium

Romanian likes a position of full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Romanian 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. Romanian needs a potting mix, loamy and silty soil with a ph of 5.5 to 7.5 (weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil).

Growing Romanian from seed

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 Romanian about 32 days before your last frost date.

Transplanting Romanian

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