5 easy steps to grow Carolina reaper pepper
step 1 - sow seeds in 3x3 inch plastic pot
step 2 - when they have 2-3 true leaves transplant them to individual pots.
step 3 - pruning or topping
cut the top of chilli plants. This will help to produce more side shoots. The plants will be more bushy and eventually produce more chillies.
step 4 planting
plant your chilli plants in 12 x12 inch containers
soil mix :
- garden soil
- garden compost
- multi purpose compost
- slow released fertilizer or fertilizer of your choice
step 5 feeding
When they produce flowers and young chillies, I feed them every 2 weeks with tomato food and seaweed extract.
*** If you live in cold climate, please grow them in the greenhouse. Place the containers at the sunniest place. They will give you lots of chillies with best flavour.
*** Don't worry if you have lots of chillies, you can freeze them or dry them in the oven. You can make your own chilli powder, too.
