Pepper 'Westlandse Lange Rode' has fairly small fruits that have a sharp taste. The Pepper is elongated and pointed in shape. The fruits are green at a young stage and turn red. Suitable for drying.
Pre-sowing and planting For greenhouse cultivation, sow before March-April, for outdoor cultivation, sow pre-in April, sow in a seed tray and grow indoors at a minimum of 20°C; the optimum germination temperature is 25°C. Germination takes quite a while. Prune out the plants in pots and plant in a greenhouse during the period at the end of April-May. For outdoor cultivation, the plants can be planted out at the end of May-beginning of June at 50 x 50 cm (for growth the soil temperature must be at least 13°C). Depending on the growing conditions, you can harvest in the period July-October. Provide above-average fertilization.
Growing instructions.
You don't prune a pepper. Reinforce the stems of the pepper as it grows with a bamboo stick, a rope on a topline for each stem, or pull a rope around a row of peppers and two posts, so that the stems rest against the rope.
Harvesting. Fruits can be picked both green and fully colored red. Depending on the growing conditions, you can harvest in the period July-October. Provide above-average fertilization.
Tip: Pepper Westlandse Lange is a success every year, can grow well in the open ground and produces a lot of peppers. Pick them once fully grown, but still unripe/green. Then they are not sharp and taste like paprika.
