Description

Golden Max Hot Banana Pepper is a prolific, hybrid variety that yields ample plants filled with large fruits. With a length of up to 7 1/2 inches and a diameter of around 1 1/2 inches, these fruits start off with a light yellow hue that deepens to red when fully matured on the vine. This variety of banana pepper boasts thick walls, making it a top choice for processing or pickling. Pickled banana peppers are a fantastic addition to salads or sandwiches, and when fresh, they add a delicious touch to fajitas.

 

Growing Information

Peppers are in the nightshade family along with tomatoes and eggplant. Plants in the nightshade family are susceptible to blossom end rot, which is a result of a calcium deficiency. To prevent or alleviate this problem, apply pelleted gypsum at the base of the plant at bloom set. Peppers do best when transplanted, as the germination time can be longer than most vegetable seed. Peppers grow very well in our heavy-duty seed starting trays. Plants should be started 4-6 weeks before the intended outdoor planting date. If conditions outside are favorable, transplants may be planted directly from our 162 cell trays. If conditions are still too cold for planting peppers, transplants may be "stepped-up" to 4" pots to allow more room to grow. Peppers can produce heavy fruits and will require some form of support to keep the plant upright. We recommend using the Florida Weave trellising technique that involves using stakes and twine along the row. This ensures that plants and fruits stay off the ground, reducing the possibility of disease and keeping fruits clean.
