- Soil: Peppers prefer well-drained, fertile soil with a pH between 6.0 and 7.0. Amend soil with compost or organic fertilizer to improve soil structure and nutrient levels.
- Spacing: Space plants 18-24 inches apart to ensure proper airflow and room for growth. Rows should be 24-36 inches apart.

Care and Maintenance:
