Plant Characteristics
• Size: Plants typically reach heights of 2 to 4 feet (60 to 120 cm), exhibiting a bushy growth habit.
• Fruit: The peppers are slender and elongated, measuring approximately 2 to 3 inches (5 to 7.5 cm) in length. They mature from green to a bright yellow hue, with a slightly wrinkled texture.
Taste and Heat Level
Aji Pineapple peppers offer a delightful combination of sweet, fruity, and citrusy flavors with a subtle pineapple-like undertone. They have a moderate heat level, ranging from 20,000 to 30,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU), providing a pleasant kick without overwhelming spiciness.
Cultivation Recommendations
• Sowing: Start seeds indoors 8 to 10 weeks before the last expected frost, maintaining a soil temperature of 75–85°F (24–29°C) for optimal germination.
• Transplanting: Once seedlings are established and the risk of frost has passed, transplant them outdoors, spacing plants 18 to 24 inches (45 to 60 cm) apart.
• Growth Requirements: Prefers full sun exposure and well-draining soil enriched with organic matter. Regular watering is essential, but avoid waterlogging to prevent root diseases.
• Maturity: Fruits typically mature in 90 to 100 days from transplanting.
