Chilli Pepper Seeds
Large selection of chilli pepper seeds including the worlds hottest peppers, Bhut Jolokia, Bih Jolokia, Naga Morich. All chilli peppers are
very sensitive to the cold, ensure plants are well established before planting
out in a cold house or outdoors. Grow in a conservatory, greenhouse or indoors
on the windowsill. Chilli peppers require high temperatures to produce the
hottest chilies, too much water, nitrogen and low temperatures will reduce the
pungency of the fruits. Fruit does not set below 15°C and above 33°C, flowers
can also drop if night temp exceeds 25°C. The red chillies are the hottest.
Scoville ratings are approx, 150,000+ is really hot!!!
Seed germination; Sow January to late April. Sow hot peppers
early as some
can take 120+ days from transplanting to fruiting. Temp
should be maintained at the indicated temp 25-30°C seeds will germinate at 25C
but will take longer 30C is the preferred temp, Tepin, Pequin and Habanero types
can be slow and erratic to emerge (allow up 35+ days for germination) compost
should not be too moist to prevent the seeds from rotting, keep seed & seedlings
out of draughts.

A Few Hints & Tips on Hot Chilli Pepper seed germination:
- Soak the seeds in water overnight to soften the seed case before planting
- You may also want to carefully knick some of the seeds using sandpaper to further loosen the outer casing before soaking as we have found this also reduces germination times. Be careful not to damage the seed embryo.
- Use a light, loose soil that will not compact, get soggy, or crust over, seed sowing compost is recommended.
- Lightly cover seed so seeds are 2-4mm below the soil
- Put your seed trays in a warm environment where you can keep the temperature in the range of 26-32C a thermostatic controlled electric propagator is recommended. This is the optimum germination temperature. Keep seeds and seedlings out of draughts.
- Keep the soil moist but not soggy and do not let it dry out.
- Germination 2-4 weeks, slow and erratic
These seeds are a challenge but the uniqueness of these Hot Indian Peppers makes all the effort worth while.
However handle these seeds with extreme care!
Seeds that are difficult to germinate can be treated with with GA (Gibberellic Acid - a
or potassium nitrate (1%) solution before sowing.
CAUTION Capiscum dust can cause irritation, do not inhale or touch eyes, wash hands thoroughly after handling seed.
