Once the seeds have sprouted, they can be moved into either larger pots or directly into the rich soil of a vegetable garden (with at least 24” of spacing between the individual plants). Additionally, as with almost all varieties of pepper, it’s important for the plants to get full sun in order to facilitate successful growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePeppers start as lime green and ripen to be bright red. Sow seeds ¼” dep indoors and transplant after a few weeks to full sun in the spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMushroom Red Hot Peppers in the Vegetable Garden\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDescribed as being very similar to Scotch Bonnet peppers in terms of both flavor and growing requirements, this cultivar is accustomed to warmer weather due to its Jamaican origins. Therefore, these seeds will grow best in hot climates similar to their native environment (although they can still thrive in other climates as long as they are cared for properly).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated at at 30,000 SHU and with a flavor that is both fruity and spicy, the thin-skinned peppers grown from these seeds are often dried and used to create extra hot chili powder but can also be a good choice for homemade hot sauces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey may need staking to grow upright, and do well in tropical climates.

It’s also advisable to minimize skin contact with the peppers themselves due to the high levels of capsaicin contained in the flesh of the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor fully mature peppers, harvest after 95 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Mushroom Red Hot Pepper Seeds\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCapsicum annuum\u003c\/em\u003e (80-95 days)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth fruity and spicy, with a considerable amount of heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese peppers are excellent when pickled, or dried to make spices.

Once the seeds have sprouted, they can be moved into either larger pots or directly into the rich soil of a vegetable garden (with at least 24” of spacing between the individual plants). Additionally, as with almost all varieties of pepper, it’s important for the plants to get full sun in order to facilitate successful growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePeppers start as lime green and ripen to be bright red.
