Its stocky habit, reaching about 45 to 75 cm (18 to 30 in) in height, makes it an excellent choice for small vegetable gardens, edible beds, and container growing. At maturity, the peppers turn a beautiful glossy red and develop thick, sweet flesh with rich aroma. Its discreet but useful white flowers are followed by generous harvests that bring both ornamental value and culinary pleasure to the organic garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrganic Red Pepper ‘Stocky Red Roaster’ should be sown indoors from February to April, about 8 to 10 weeks before the last expected frost in Canada. Seeds germinate best in warmth, between 24 and 30°C (75 to 86°F), in a light, fertile, well-drained growing mix. After hardening off, transplant seedlings into full sun, in organic-rich, slightly acidic to neutral, well-drained soil, once all risk of frost has passed. Keep the soil evenly moist without waterlogging, especially during flowering and fruit production. Mulch, compost, and balanced fertilization support abundant yields.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the garden, Organic Red Pepper ‘Stocky Red Roaster’ is ideal for family vegetable gardens, ecological gardens, edible landscapes, and 15 to 20 L (4 to 5 gal) containers placed in full sun. It grows well alongside tomatoes, eggplants, carrots, onions, and peas, while avoiding proximity to fennel and kohlrabi whenever possible. Its small white flowers attract bees and other pollinating insects, supporting vegetable garden biodiversity and good fruit set. Harvest fruits about 75 days after transplanting, once they are fully red, for grilling, roasting, sauces, and salads.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Biologiquement vôtre","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52191591465120,"sku":"BIOV-SEMENCES","price":4.49,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/3878\/5440\/files\/poivron-stocky-red.png?v=1770395278","url":"https:\/\/www.pepiniere.ca\/en\/products\/poivron-doux-stocky-red-roaster-bio","provider":"Pépinière.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
