Harvest
Grow sweet pepper Lemon Dream at home and enjoy harvesting fresh, attractive, long yellow sweet peppers in big numbers from July – perfect for summer dishes and eating al fresco. Look forward to peppers right through to October from your productive plants.
Your pepper plants grow best in the greenhouse or on a windowsill that receives full sun. They are happy outdoors too; just make sure you have a sunny and sheltered position and be ready to bring your plants indoors if the weather turns.
How to sow:
Get 9cm pots and fill them with seed and cutting compost, suitable for seeds that are just germinating. The compost has just the right degree of nutrients for happy seedlings.
Position three seeds 0.5cm (1/4in) deep around the edge of a 9cm pot. Water the compost and label and date your pepper Lemon Dream as a useful guide to refer back to.
Keep somewhere that gets 16°C (61°F) of warmth and keep the soil moist until your seedlings reach a size they can transplant into bigger pots. Lift the seedlings by the leaves and place one seedling to its own pot from now on. Transplant again into bigger pots by degrees as your peppers grow. Use bamboo canes to support the stems if they start to flop with the weight of the fruit.
How To Grow
Add some heat to your garden with chilli and sweet pepper seeds, perfect for greenhouses, pots, or sunny borders. From fiery hot chillies to crisp, sweet peppers, there’s a variety for every taste. Start seeds early in warm conditions for the best results. As fruits develop, feed regularly with a high-potash fertiliser to boost flavour and yields. Homegrown peppers are a delicious addition to any dish!
Indoor Sowing Sow seeds early in a warm, bright spot. Coco Dots are ideal for strong root growth with the right balance of moisture and aeration. A heated propagator can help maintain warmth. Once seedlings develop two true leaves, pot on into 9cm pots of compost and grow in a bright, sheltered place. Keep soil moist but not waterlogged.
Planting Out Harden plants off over 7–14 days before transplanting outdoors. Plant 1cm deep, spacing 30cm between plants and 30cm between rows. Mulch to retain heat and moisture.
Harvesting Harvest peppers green for a crisp flavour or leave to ripen to red, yellow, or orange for a sweeter taste. Chillies can be picked at any stage, depending on the heat level you prefer.
