Corno Rosso / 10 seeds

(Capsicum annum)

Very tasty / Dark red fruits / Classic 'Corno do Toro' type

Variety description: The Corno Rosso variety is considered to be extremely productive. It forms conical, fairly long and thick fruits. These weigh between 200 and 300 grams. They are dark red and very tasty. They ripen from dark green to dark red.

Cultivation: Before sowing, moisten the soil, sprinkle seeds on top, cover very thinly and press down lightly. At 20°-26°C, the seeds germinate after 8-14 days.

Care: Give the young plants suitable fertilizer as early as the beginning of May. Special tomato and pepper fertilizer has a long-term effect and can be easily worked into the soil. The location should be bright to sunny and warm. Water generously. At night, the temperature should not fall below 16°C.

Pepper plants always look neat and become even more beautiful when the fruits turn from green to red in late summer/early autumn or decorate the balcony or terrace in yellow or dark purple. Then the harvest takes place and you can use this healthy vegetable in a variety of ways. Enjoy your meal!

• Use suitable humus-rich soil or ready-made special soil.
• It is best to sow in pots straight away. February to April is ideal. For outdoor cultivation, the end of April to mid-May is sufficient. The cultivation period is 12-14 weeks, depending on the variety.
• Fertilize generously with tomato/pepper fertilizer or lots of compost.
• For good soil, you should water a lot, as the plants develop few roots and therefore cannot store much.
• Give the young plants a stick to support them
• Break out the first flower/fruit. This increases the yield of the ripening fruit.
• The water used for watering must not be colder than 14°C.
