Chillies & Peppers - Seed Collection

Indoor Planting:
Sow the seeds 5mm deep in trays of moist compost, be careful not to over-water. Store in a warm place at an approx. temperature of 18 - 21˚c (65 - 70˚f). Ensure the compost is moist at all times. Once the seedlings begin to appear the trays can be moved to a warm light position, keeping out of direct sunlight. Turn regularly.

Growing On:
When the seedlings are strong enough to handle they can be transplanted into bigger pots or trays. Be careful when easing the roots out as they can easily be damaged. Do not overcrowd the plants. Keep the pots in a warm light position.
Once all chance of frost has passed the plants can be transplanted into growing beds or patio tubs outside, harden of first. It would also be useful to cover with cloches for extra protection.
These plants do best in very mild conditions, therefore, it would be better to keep them in a greenhouse or indoors. Plants will need staking.
Pick fruits to encourage more growth.
