Additional Details

Where to Sow Astor Pepper Seeds

Sow seed on the surface of a free draining compost in pots or trays and cover with a fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite and place at a temperature 18-21 degrees Celsius until seeds germinate. 

What to do next

Prick out seedlings when large enough to handle into 7cm (3") pots and grow on under glass. Once plants reach 10cm (4") high transplant into growbags or 25cm (10") pots and grow on under glass. Feed once a week with tomato fertiliser after first fruits have set. 

Handy Tip

To help support the weight of the crop it is best to tie plants to some canes as they grow.
