Primrose Chilli Pepper Scotch Bonnet Very Hot Chilli 8.5Cm Pot Garden Vegetable Plant from B&Q
Primrose
A spicy, seed mix of small, edible and hot scotch bonnet chillies. Position: full sun Soil: humus-rich, moisture retentive soil Rate of growth: average Hardiness: half-hardy annual Mainly grown for it's decorative, super-hot fruits (which have a rating of 350,000-400,000 on the Scoville Scale), 'Scotch Bonnet' will produce plenty of tam o' shanter-shaped chilli peppers throughout the summer. These can be eaten when they're green, pumpkin orange, or fiery red - although we'd always recommend wearing gloves when handling them. It's a good one to grow if you like your food spicy, and if you save the seeds from the ripe chillies, you can plant them up for another crop the following year. Growing instructions: Sow indoors from February to May. Sow 1cm deep in trays or alternatively two seeds per pot selecting the strongest seedling. Use multi purpose compost, to cover seeds. Plant out in a greenhouse April to June. When plants reach 20cm high, pinch out the tips to encourage more side shoots and therefore more peppers. Feed regularly with high-potash tomato feed once the fruits begin to form. Sow: February to May Harvest: July to October.
