Once the seedlings have grown two true leaves, remove them from the propagator to a warm, light, frost-free location. Transplanting Seedlings: When they reach about 20cm in height, transplant them into larger pots or their final growing container, preferably with a minimum diameter of 30cm.

Location: Tangerine Dream peppers thrive in a greenhouse or under the protection of a polytunnel. If planting outdoors, keep in mind that the yield might not be as abundant. Support: Provide some support by staking with a small cane to support the plant once it starts fruiting. Maturity: Expect to harvest your peppers from late July to Autumn. You can pick the peppers green or wait until they transition to a bright golden orange. Harvest Tips: The ready-to-harvest peppers are small, about 6-8cm long, transitioning from green to a bright golden orange when ripe.
