Hot Cherry Pepper

Hot Cherry Peppers are round and have a medium heat rating. They produce cherry-shaped 1 1/2 inch fruits generously on full, bushy plants. Being sensitive to the cold, planting should be delayed until the danger of frost is past in the spring. Ideal temperatures are 70 to 80 degrees F during the day, and 60 to 70 degrees F at night. Usually, the plants set satisfactory crops when temperatures are between 65 and 80 degrees F and the soil is well-supplied with moisture. Avoid a soggy, water-logged soil condition when growing peppers.
