Product description

  • Grow the Worlds Hottest Chilli - The Carolina Reaper which is over 2.2 Million SHU (Scoville Heat Units)
  • Germinating Carolina Reaper seeds can be challenging, as they require a consistent temperature of at least 25 C day and night. Any decrease in night-time temperature will significantly increase the germination time. To help with this, use a seedling heat mat or, preferably, a heated propagator that can maintain a temperature of at least 23 C constantly. For optimal germination, aim for a temperature of 28 C. Keep in mind that even with ideal germination conditions, it can take up to 4 weeks for the seeds to sprout.
  • LIGHT Just like any living plant, peppers need light to grow. If you are starting your plants indoors, you might need to use grow lights until they are ready to go outdoors. If your pepper plants have been indoors (from seed) they will need to gradually transition to the natural sun before they are moved outdoors. This is called "hardening off. Watch out for seedlings getting tall and leggy, this is due to not enough light.
  • SOIL & NUTRIENTS Use a good potting soil or seed starter soil. Use perlite to help with drainage and good root growth. Seed Starter soil generally has little or no nutrients so you will need to start adding feed to the soil once the seedling has shown its first set of leaves or earlier.
  • WATER Once the seed has sprouted, the root will already be 1 inch or longer so keeping the top of the soil moist is not so important. Chilli Plants hate being overwatered. A sign of this is yellowing leaves. Chilli plants can cope much better with underwatering and will let you know when they need more water by the leaves drooping. Give the first inch of soil a chance to dry out before watering more. Water in the morning or evening when it's cooler to avoid scorching leaves.
