Tips & Advice:
Sowing Indoors
Level fill a module seed tray firming with the base of another tray. Water well with a fine rose. Sow seeds individually and cover with a thin layer of fine compost or vermiculite. Place in a propagator at 18-25°C or cover tray with cling film and leave in a warm room. Keep moist.
Growing On
When shoots appear, remove cling film. Keep seedlings in a light position, but shade from direct sunlight. When plants have 4-6 leaves transplant to 8cm pots of potting compost. Grow on in a minimum temperature of 15°C. Pinch the growing tip to encourage bushy growth.
Planting Out
Plant out into 25cm containers once roots are beginning to come through the bottom of the 8cm pot. Keep indoors in a greenhouse, on a light windowsill or sunny sheltered patio spot. Stems may require some support.
Aftercare
Water regularly and feed weekly with a liquid tomato fertiliser as fruits start to swell.
Caution
Wash hands and avoid eye contact after handling chillis.
