Growing Information
Transplanting your Lemon Drop seedling is a breeze. Just remember, these peppers love a sunny spot that gets 8-12 hours of full sun daily. Choose a location with nutrient-rich, well-draining soil for best results. Space your plants about 14-18 inches apart to allow them plenty of room to grow. Lemon Drop peppers may need staking due to their tall, productive branches, so keep that in mind as your plants start to flourish. With consistent watering, letting the top inch of soil dry between drinks, and balanced fertilization every 3-4 weeks, you'll be well on your way to a vibrant, bountiful harvest.
'Nir’s Take'
“I grow these every year for a very specific reason: they make an incredible hot sauce! While I’m not a fan of eating them raw – they have a very citrusy pepper taste which isn’t my personal preference – I absolutely love them when they’re part of a sauce, adding a unique twist. The best part? These plants are heavy bearers. Just a couple of plants in your garden will yield an almost tree-like abundance of peppers. So if you’re looking to experiment or you’re a hot sauce aficionado, the Lemon Drop is a fantastic choice!”
Cooking & Eating Ideas
The citrusy heat of the Lemon Drop pepper makes it a versatile ingredient in the kitchen. It's fantastic in salsas, hot sauces, and marinades. Pair it with fish, chicken, and vegetable dishes or dry and grind it into a unique, tangy seasoning. The possibilities are endless!
