Growing Information
To get the most out of your Hot Pepper Chinese 5 Color, start by transplanting your seedlings to a sunny outdoor spot once nighttime temperatures are consistently above 65 F. Remember to space them 14–18 inches apart to ensure they have room to grow. They love full sun and well-draining, slightly acidic to neutral soil. Water them consistently, allowing the top inch of soil to dry slightly between waterings to avoid root rot. Fertilize with a balanced, low-nitrogen fertilizer every 3–4 weeks to support flowering and fruiting.
'Nir’s Take'
“I’ve grown these in my garden for the last two years and they are just a fun and ornamental plant to have. The peppers are super spicy, but they are super colorful and really just cool to see in the garden, especially when they’re in full harvest mode. The peppers are all sorts of yellow, oranges, and reds depending on what stage they are in their ripening phase. Just a few of these go a long way in pretty much anything that you want to spice up so I don’t typically grow too many. I’d say one or two is enough just to put as part of your garden but not necessarily as part of your food production.”
