DESCRIPTION
Sweet Pepper YOLO WONDER is a reliable choice if you want a variety that’s productive, sturdy, and easy to grow. The peppers have thick walls and a crisp bite, making them perfect for salads, stir-fries, roasting, grilling, and especially for stuffing and baking.
For best results, sow seeds into warm soil (around 21 °C) at about 6 mm depth and keep evenly moist. Seedlings typically appear in 10–21 days. Transplant once plants have at least two true leaves. Set out ~20 cm tall plants with about 45 cm spacing. Feed regularly (a tomato/pepper fertilizer works well) and keep watering consistent throughout the season.
