Both hot and sweet peppers need warmth for germination and strong growth, so start them off indoors or under cover in most climates. Sow seeds no more than two months before your last frost date.

Sowing Peppers

Sow seeds an inch apart in flats or pots of seed-starting mix, then cover with a little more mix. Water the seeds in using a fine spray.
