Planting Instructions:

1. Sow Seeds: Start Sprinter Bell Pepper Seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date or sow directly outdoors after the last frost once soil temperatures reach at least 65°F (18°C). Plant seeds about 1/4 inch deep and space them 18-24 inches apart to allow for proper air circulation.
2. Soil & Temperature: Bell peppers thrive in warm temperatures ranging from 70-85°F (21-29°C) during the day. Prepare well-draining, slightly acidic to neutral soil with a pH of 6.0-7.0 for best results.
3. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist throughout the growing season, but avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot. Use drip irrigation for best results to keep foliage dry and reduce disease risk.
4. Harvesting: Harvest peppers when they are fully grown and firm to the touch. For maximum sweetness, allow them to ripen to red, although they can be picked at the green stage for a milder taste.
