{"product_id":"piment-fort-peter-p-nis-jaune","title":"'Peter Yellow P*nis' Hot Pepper","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYellow Peter Pepper (\u003cem\u003eCapsicum annuum\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003c\/strong\u003e is an old and highly unusual variety, best known for the surprising phallic shape of its fruits. Its exact origins remain unclear, but it is often associated with Texas or Louisiana, where it was first grown as an ornamental curiosity. The plant can reach up to 1 m (3 ft) tall and produces decorative peppers that inevitably draw attention in the vegetable garden. With moderate heat of about 50,000 SHU, it combines a playful appearance, strong horticultural interest, and a fruity, lightly sweet, spicy flavor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYellow Peter Pepper grows best in full sun, in rich, fertile, well-drained soil, with regular watering that avoids waterlogging the growing medium. Start seeds indoors in early March, about 8 to 10 weeks before the last expected frost, at an ideal temperature of 25 to 30°C (77 to 86°F). Germination usually takes 10 to 20 days. Once seedlings have 4 to 6 true leaves, transplant them into larger pots before hardening them off outdoors. After the last frost, space plants 40 to 50 cm (16 to 20 in) apart in the garden, or grow them in containers of at least 7 L (2 gal).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the garden, this pepper is perfect for eccentric vegetable gardens, urban gardens, sunny patios, and collections of rare varieties. It grows well alongside tomatoes, basil, and cilantro, while benefiting from being kept away from fennel and beets. Its flowers may attract pollinators, while its fruits are harvested about 90 to 120 days after sowing, once they turn yellow at maturity for this selection. In the kitchen, it adds heat to sauces, salsas, and spicy dishes, and it can also be frozen whole or chopped to extend the harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ferme alternative Les Gardiens","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53243835613344,"sku":"GARD-SEMENCES","price":6.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/3878\/5440\/files\/Pimentfort_PeterPnisJaune.png?v=1770653704","url":"https:\/\/www.pepiniere.ca\/en\/products\/piment-fort-peter-p-nis-jaune","provider":"Pépinière.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
