Features and benefits

Pimenta da Neyde Chilli Seeds – 10 Fresh Seeds

• 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.
