Growing Cayenne Large Red Thick Hot Pepper
‘Cayenne Large Red Thick’ is an open-pollinated cayenne pepper prized for its classic heat and thicker flesh. Similar in appearance to traditional long red cayennes, its more substantial walls provide extra versatility in the kitchen.
Start ‘Cayenne Large Red Thick’ indoors for transplanting. Plant seeds about ¼ inch deep and space plants 24 to 36 inches apart. Grow in full sun. This heat-tolerant variety performs especially well through warm summer weather.
Ready to harvest in about 75 days, pick peppers once they reach their mature size and full red color.
Hot, fleshy, and versatile, ‘Cayenne Large Red Thick’ is excellent for sauces, drying, seasoning, and spicy everyday cooking.
