Pico de Gallo - Pepper
This ancient variety has very narrow leaves and produces elongated fruits, 6 to 8 cm long, which ripen from green to red and have thick flesh.
Sow in pots at temperatures between 16 and 20°C, under a well-lit shelter, 8 to 10 weeks before planting. After the last frosts, transplant the whole clump into the ground, at least 50 cm apart, burying the stem up to the first leaves. Water abundantly at the time of planting.
Solanaceae need light and heat to produce. In cool climates, it's best to grow them under cover and, depending on the soil, water them regularly.
