Organic Pepper: Hot - Anaheim Planting Instructions:
Anaheim peppers do best in full sun, planted 1/4 inch deep and 1 to 2" apart. Start the plants indoors in peat pots or cell packs 8 to 10 weeks before transplanting them outside. Set the plants outdoors 2 to 3 weeks after the last frost. When transplanting, space the plants 12 to 24" apart, in rows 24 to 36" apart, or spaced 14 to 16" apart in raised beds. The peppers will do best with even moisture. Do not plant the peppers in the same place more than once every four years. Grow time is about 80 days.
Organic Pepper: Hot - Anaheim Harvesting Instructions:
Peppers are ready for harvest when they are firm and shiny with a crisp texture. To harvest, use garden shears to clip the fruits. Pulling them off risks damaging the plant. Store fresh peppers at 50 degrees and at least 90% humidity, if possible. Storing them alongside other fruits and vegetables will cause them to age faster, as peppers are sensitive to ethylene gas.
