Scotch Bonnet Red Chili Seeds

Price for Package of 5 seeds.

Scotch bonnet is one of the most popular chilli peppers. This variety matures from green to red. The plant grows up to 1 metre tall and produces lots of fruits, 4-6cm long. Long growing season, most suitable for greenhouse production, february sowing.
Cultivation: Sow early December-January Under glass, or for maincrop March - April. Spacing 30-60cm x 45-90cm.  The seeds germinate between 25 and 30°C.  Grow on at 16-23°C. The seeds require good ventilation so do not further cover the seeds in bags/propagators unless absolutely necessary. 
Harvest from early April/May, or maincrop from July.
Only water when the soil around the roots is dry as overwatering can produce a smaller crop of more sour tasting fruits. A ph level in the growing media that is slightly acidic is useful. 
The seeds do not need sunlight to germinate, but once they sprout you need to place them under fluorescent lights  for 10 to 16 hours per day. You can reduce the temperature to 70 degrees after they sprout. 
A liquid feed with a good quality Tomato feed will be envigorate the plants once they are established but do not overwater/feed.
This variety may grow outdoors but they are best used as a greenhouse crop or perhaps on a nice sunny windowledge!
