Information
We have grown it for several years and know it to be a reliable, mid early block pepper, producing massive fruits with a thick fruity flesh. The fruits are large and weigh 250-300g. They turn from dark green to bright red when fully ripe. The plant grows to about 50-60 cm high and may need support due to the heavy fruits.
A portion contains about 15 seeds.

Cultivation advice
Sowing
Sow indoors just under 1 cm deep 8-10 weeks before setting out, in January-March for cool green houses and in February-Mars for outdoors peppers! The best germination temperature is 22-30 °C. Let the plants stand in a light airy place and after sprouting preferably at a temperature of 18-20°C. After getting a few real leaves the sprouts should be planted in pots. The temperature can now be lowered further. Temper the plants successively before setting out. Do not set the plants outdoors before the risk of nightly frost is over and the nightly temperature keeps above 7°C! Plant them a little deeper than they were in the pots and never allow them to dry out. Do not hurry too much with your sowing if you do not have a really good "nursery".Spacing
30-50 cm between the plants. 50-70 cm between rows.Harvest
The fruits ripen from dark green to red. Be patient.The plants get new fruits as long as they are harvested.
