The small plants are placed on coconut substrate mats and then provided with a water drip system. The substrate mats provide a good nutrient medium for the pepper plants. And with many the different types of peppers and peppers we grow, the water drip system ensures that each plant gets just the right amount of water and nutrients!
Then the plants need a lot of time to grow. With some varieties, such as the white tip, shakira and green jalapeño, we can harvest for the first time as early as February/March. But other varieties like the super hots and Aji Amarillo not until May. This varies by variety and color.
