The mildest chili, ideal for more delicate tastebuds! The large, shiny, bottle-green fruits are mildly pungent with a tinge of sweetness and ideal for stuffing and roasting. Fully ripe red fruits are ideal for powders and sauces. Generous yields throughout the season. Suitable for greenhouse, conservatory or outdoors.
Sow March to April. Place seed on the surface of a free draining compost and cover with a fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite. Place in a propagator at 18-20C (64-68F) until after germination, which takes 7 to 14 days. Do not exclude light, as this helps germination.
Feed weekly with tomato fertiliser once first fruits have set.
