The Macedonian Rezha pepper is a very original heirloom variety, originating from Macedonia, the word rezha meaning 'engraved', a reference to the lines on its skin. Each plant bears many fruits.
The Macedonian Rezha pepper has a strong flavor (between 5/10 on the Scoville scale). Depending on the harvest stage, it can be eaten fresh, crunchy, sautéed, or sun-dried or oven-dried.

How to successfully sow chili peppers

Sow in February-March in pots of fine seed compost in a heated greenhouse (25°C). Peppers need a high temperature at the beginning of their development as well as a little humidity but not too much. Germination within 3 weeks.
Plant out in May in deep, loose soil, in a warm, sunny location, sheltered from the wind, 50 cm apart in all directions. Hoeing, watering and mulching.
If you do not live in a warm region, greenhouse cultivation is highly recommended.

Good associations

Peppers will appreciate cohabitation with other nightshades: Peruvian groundcherry, Balbis nightshade, peppers, tomatoes, etc.

Harvesting chili peppers

5 to 6 months after sowing when the peppers are fully ripe.
Pick as needed or dry in the sun or oven.
