Growth & Care

Amfora peppers are disease-resistant 🛡️, reducing the risk of common infections. However, to maintain optimal yield and fruit quality, consistent care is important.

Pruning can be done to improve airflow and reduce the risk of fungal infections, though it's optional. Mulching helps retain soil moisture and regulates temperature.
