The plants are shorter than many others and upright, the fruits are conical and pungent, reaching 5000 Scoville. AGM winner. Price for 10 seeds
SOW: from mid-April to end of May, indoors in a warm soil in trays or modules barely covering the seeds as they need light to germinate.
GROW: when they reach the 2/3 leaf stage they can be planted into a greenhouse or hardened off and put outside in a warm sheltered spot. You can grow them in the soil in a container or in a grow bag. Fresno matures from dark green to red about 90 days or so from transplanting.
