Instructions
Start sowing pepper seeds indoors about 8-10 weeks before the last expected frost date in your area. Peppers require a long growing season, so starting them indoors gives them a head start. Use seed trays or small pots with drainage holes. Plant the seeds about 1/4 inch deep. Place one to two seeds per cell or pot, covering them lightly with soil. Firm the soil gently to ensure good contact with the seeds. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Use a spray bottle to mist the surface, which helps avoid disturbing the seeds. Transplant to warmest location in your garden after second set of true leaves appear. Apply mulch to save water and keep the roots cool for best results.

Originally, Hungarian Hot wax peppers were developed in Hungary to withstand the country's cooler climate. This made them ideal for growing in regions that did not have the long, hot growing seasons typically required for many other pepper varieties. Their ability to thrive in less than ideal conditions contributed to their popularity not only in Hungary but also in other parts of Europe and eventually North America.
