Green Pepper Seeds

Green Pepper is great in salads and many dishes. It adds flavor to stews, curries and stir frys.

Pepper seeds require a temperature range between 18 and 35 degrees Fahrenheit. The optimum temperature for germination is 25 to 30 degrees. At the optimum temperature, pepper seeds germinate and sprout within 5 to eight days.

Plant seeds ± 5mm deep in the soil. Cover with soil and water carefully. Over watering can cause fungal growth which leads to seed rot. Excess water can also bury seeds deep in the soil where they will not be able break the surface. Water when the soil surface just begins to dry. Multiple seeds can be planted in a single starter container, but should be thinned once seedlings appear so only a single plant remains.

Once a few true leaves have developed, seedlings should be slowly moved outside (if sprouted indoors) to ambient light. Care should be taken not to expose seedlings to direct, scorching sun so plants may need to be hardened off via slow sun exposure. Hardening off can be done using a shaded or filtered light location, as well as protection from strong winds, rain or low humidity. Hardening off time varies, but can take 5-10 days

Minimum 30 seeds per pack.

All seeds are tested and grown on our farm in Malawi and our growing area in South Africa. Please check conditions in your area for the type of seed to be grown. Growth rates and germination times are dependent on many factors such as soil conditions, rainfall/watering patterns, climate and many more. Growth and harvest can be affected by these conditions.

Please note that certain countries require specific permission to grow certain plants or ban their growth completely.  Please check your local regulations before purchasing products.  We will not be held responsible for products purchased that are not allowed in your country/province.
