📖 Complete Growing Guide
Peppers thrive in Jamaica's warm climate and can produce abundantly for many months. Both sweet and hot varieties grow exceptionally well here.
**Growing Tips:**
• Seeds need warmth (80°F+) to germinate - be patient!
• Start indoors 8-10 weeks before transplanting
• Harden off seedlings before planting outside
• Don't over-fertilize - too much nitrogen = leaves, not fruit
• Pick regularly to encourage more production
**Jamaican Favorites:**
• Scotch Bonnet - Jamaica's iconic pepper (very hot!)
• West Indian Red - great for pepper sauce
• Seasoning pepper - flavor without the heat
• Bell peppers - sweet and colorful
**Tip:** Wear gloves when handling Scotch Bonnets!
