Description: 25TABASCOHOT PEPPER SEEDS Tabasco hot peppers are a popular variety known for their spicy flavor and compact size, making them a great choice for growing in home gardens. Here is a detailed planting and harvesting guide to help you successfully grow tabasco hot peppers: Planting: 1. Start by choosing a sunny location for planting, as tabasco hot peppers require at least 6-8 hours of sunlight per day to thrive. 2. Prepare the soil by loosening it with a garden fork or tiller and mixing in compost or well-aged manure to improve soil fertility and drainage. 3. Plant tabasco hot pepper seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date in your area. Sow the seeds in small pots filled with seed starting mix, and keep them in a warm, sunny location until they germinate. 4. Once the seedlings have grown to a height of 2-3 inches, transplant them into the garden, spacing them 18-24 inches apart in rows that are 24-36 inches apart. 5. Water the plants regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Mulch around the base of the plants to help retain moisture and suppress weeds. Harvesting: 1. Tabasco hot peppers typically mature in 80-90 days after transplanting. Look for peppers that are firm, glossy, and bright red in color for optimum flavor and heat. 2. Use sharp scissors or pruning shears to harvest tabasco hot peppers by cutting the stem just above the pepper. Avoid pulling or twisting the peppers off the plant, as this can damage the plant and reduce future yields. 3. Harvest the peppers as needed throughout the growing season to encourage continued fruit production. Mature peppers left on the plant will eventually turn from green to red and may develop a deeper flavor and heat. 4. Use harvested tabasco hot peppers fresh in salsas, hot sauces, and marinades, or dry them for later use by stringing them together and hanging them in a warm, dry location until fully dried. 5. At the end of the growing season, harvest any remaining tabasco hot peppers before the first frost to prevent damage to the plants and fruits. By following this planting and harvesting guide, you can enjoy a bountiful harvest of spicy tabasco hot peppers to add flavor and heat to all your favorite dishes. Enjoy the fruits of your labor and happy gardening! As a seller, I understand that there may be some confusion when it comes to the terms and conditions of shipping and delivery. In order to provide clarity, I would like to address a few important points: 1. 3 business day shipping: We strive to ship out your order within three business days from the date of purchase. This means that weekends (Saturday and Sunday) are not considered business days, so please keep this in mind when estimating your delivery time. 2.
