Growing Sweet Hungarian Yellow Wax Peppers

Sweet Hungarian yellow wax peppers are a delicious and versatile variety of pepper that is easy to grow at home. They are perfect for adding a touch of sweetness and heat to a variety of dishes, including salads, stir-fries, and stews.

To grow sweet Hungarian yellow wax peppers, follow these steps:

Start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date in your area. Fill a seed starting tray with well-draining potting mix and moisten it thoroughly. Sow the seeds 1/4 inch deep and space them about 1 inch apart. Cover the tray with plastic wrap to create a warm, humid environment.

Place the seed starting tray in a warm location, such as a sunny windowsill or near a heat mat. Keep the soil moist but not soggy. The seeds should germinate within 14-21 days.

Once the seedlings have two sets of true leaves, they can be transplanted into individual pots. Use a well-draining potting mix and space the seedlings about 2 inches apart.

When the seedlings are about 6 inches tall and have hardened off, they can be transplanted into the garden. Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Space the plants 18-24 inches apart.

Water the plants deeply once a week, or more often if the weather is hot and dry. Fertilize the plants every two weeks with a balanced fertilizer.
Sweet Hungarian yellow wax peppers are typically ripe 60-90 days after transplanting. The peppers will be bright yellow and firm when ripe.

Be sure to wear gloves when harvesting sweet Hungarian yellow wax peppers, as the capsaicin oil can irritate your skin.
