Culture. A high temperature is required to germinate Pep- 
per seed. Sow the seed early in hotbeds or in protected 
boxes, or delay planting until the ground has become well 
warmed. When plants have 6 to 8 leaves, and danger of 
frost is over, they may be transplanted to the open ground 
in rows 3 feet apart and 1% to 2 feet between plants. Cul- 
tivate and keep free of weeds. One ounce will produce 1000 
plants; 1 pound enough plants for an acre, 
days from setting of plants to picking marketable fruit.
