Consejos de cultivo
Moderate water stress during fruit development increases capsaicin content and pungency; avoid overwatering hot pepper varieties.
Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before last frost; chili peppers require warm soil (> 18 C) and grow slowly as seedlings.
Allow peppers to fully ripen on the plant for maximum flavor, color, and heat; green chilies are simply immature fruit.
