This is really good. All about commercial production of peppers in Miami.
Good descriptions of all the pepper varieties.
This little thing stood out. I don’t know if all growers do it but they said “For chili peppers, 2 or 3 transplants usually are placed in the same hole because of their small leaf area. “.
Never heard that before.
Also didn’t know that “habanero prefers a slightly acidic soil (about pH 6)”.
I wonder if that would be true for scotch bonnets as well. My soil generally has high pH though it fluctuates.
