Chilli Pepper Caldero is a hybrid Santa Fe type producing a high yield of attractive, tasty fruits on a compact plant, typically 30-45cm high. Fruits turn creamy yellow to orange to red, and measure 8cm by 3cm. Very hot. Ideal for pot sales. Chilli seeds are sown early in the year, and grown in a poly-tunnel, greenhouse or sunny windowsill. Germinatation takes 10-14 days but can take longer a week or two longer if the gods are not with you! Use a soil based seedand potting-on compost. Good drainage is essential. Warmth is the key to good germination, ideally over 25°, but will germinate above 21°.
Sow & Harvest Dates:
Ideally sow January through April. Matures in 80 Days.
Growing Information:
In a small pot, sow several seeds in 5mm drills. When most of the seeds have germinated transfer into a individual larger pots. Once the plant as 5 true leaves either plant in the groud (Poly-tunnel) or in its own 20cm pot. Be careful not to allow temperatures above 35° and try not to let the plant get too dry (avoids blossom-drop and pod-drop.).
