Seed Details
The lemon drop is a conical pepper that is around 60–80 mm long and 12 mm wide with some crinkling. Lemon drop peppers are also called ají limon. Lemon Drop peppers while growing in popularity can be difficult to find. These peppers are rising in popularity for their stunning golden yellow color, significant heat and zesty citrus tang. Their heat is significant without being overbearing 15,000 to 30,000 Scoville heat units. This chili pepper is perfect for spicier citrus-based hot sauces and salsa.
Instructions
Sow seeds 1 cm deep indoors about six weeks before the last expected frost. For most locations, this will be between January and March. Replant your seedlings in larger pots after they have at least 2 sets of true leaves or are at least 2 inches tall. In two more weeks move outdoors to a bright, well-drained but moist location. Prepare your peppers for the outdoors before they actually go outside safely, by letting a small fan blow on them or taking them outdoors in a protected location for a few hours a day. Water regularly but know that as a rule peppers and tomatoes benefit from backing off of the water near the end of the season. This encourages the plants existing fruits to ripen faster. Peppers require 8 to 12 hours of sun a day and will enjoy the warmest location in your garden.
