Pepper has been used as a spice for more than 3000 years. Pepper plants do bear first fruits after 3 years and can be harvested over a period of 10 to 20 years. Harvested pepper is green, does however turn black during the drying process. The wrinkled pepper skin is the product of shrivelled fruit flesh. Origin: Indigenous to the Malabar Coast in the south-west of India. Propagation: The seeds can be started indoors at any time throughout the year. Leave the seeds to soak in water for a few hours. Then mix moist cultivation soil with 1/4 sand. Press the seeds 1 cm deep into the soil and cover them with the mixture. Place the cultivation container in a very warm location. Ideal temperatures for germination are 25° to 30°C. High humidity inside the cultivation container (spray mist) is helpful for germination. Place / Light: Being a Tropical plant, the pepper requires a very warm and partially shaded position, temperatures of 20°C and above, and high humidity. Therefore, already young plants should be sprayed now and then. Care: If you do use standard soil, it should be broken up with humus. Water evenly and fertilize weekly during the growing period. Winter period: Winter care is identical to summer care. The temperature should in any case not drop below 15°C. Bonsai Suitability: No ## Features - Price for 20 seeds - Four-colour-card with color photo - Seeds can be started indoors any time throughout the year. - Seed cards with detailed information about propagation, place, care and hibernation. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Package Dimensions | 14.9 x 10.5 x 0.5 cm; 10 Grams | | Expected blooming period | Winter | | Moisture needs | Moderate Watering | | Sunlight exposure | Partial Shade | | Soil type | Sandy Soil | | Manufacturer | TROPICA | | ASIN | B00OAKWCFW | ## Images ![TROPICA - Black Pepper (Piper nigrum) - 20 Seeds - Useful Plants - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Y2s8LXOzL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐ 1.0 out of 5 stars SEEDS DID NOTGERMINATE *by A***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 May 2017* The seeds did not germinate despite all my efforts.
