Capia Pepper Chili Seeds

Info: The Capia pointed pepper is a very popular variety from Turkey - very fragrant, sweet and juicy and with a very high yield. The bushy plants (up to 70 cm in height) bear lots of fleshy chillies. They are about 5 x 12 cm in size and ripen from green to red. The aromatic peppers are suitable for fresh consumption, in salads, for filling, pickling and are extremely delicious straight from the grill, stuffed with minced meat.

Care: The germination temperature is between 22 und 28°C (8 - 20 day germination period), therefore the use of a greenhouse and a heating pad is recommended. The plants need fresh, well-fertilised, permeable soil, and do not tolerate waterlogging. They should be planted in a sunny, protected place with at least 6 hours of sunlight - preferably more. Put the plants outside approx. 2 to 3 weeks after the last frost.
