Growing Tips
The Biquinho Yellow pepper is a mild, heirloom pepper from Brazil that adds a citrusy, sweet flavor with a hint of heat. It grows best in warm, full-sun conditions and slightly acidic, well-draining soil with a pH of 6.0–7.0. Use a heat mat and grow lights to encourage strong, healthy seedlings.
When to Grow
For a long growing season, start Biquinho Yellow pepper seeds indoors in early spring, around 8-12 weeks before the last frost. Transplant seedlings outdoors after the final frost, once nighttime temperatures consistently stay above 65 F.
How to Sow and Plant
Sow seeds in individual pots or seed trays, and when seedlings reach 4 inches in height with true leaves, harden them off by gradually introducing them to outdoor conditions. Space plants 14-18 inches apart in the garden or use a large container with adequate drainage. Soil amended with compost will provide essential nutrients.
How to Grow
Keep the soil evenly moist, letting the top inch dry out slightly between waterings to avoid root rot. Biquinho peppers respond well to monthly feeding with a balanced fertilizer or compost. To ensure healthy growth and abundant fruiting, apply a mulch layer to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
How to Save
- Peppers are mainly self-pollinating, but bees occasionally work pepper flowers as well.
- To be absolutely sure that you will not have any crossing, different varieties should be isolated by at least 500 feet.
- It is a good idea to wear gloves when working with very hot peppers, and to consider wearing a mask when working with a large quantity of dried seeds.
- To save seed, allow the fruit to mature fully; then simply remove seeds.
- Let seeds dry for a week before storing them in a jar.
- Pepper seeds will remain viable for up to 5 years.
