Seeds Organic "Sweet Chocolate" Chillies (Capsicum annum)

Sweet Chocolate x / 10 seeds

(Capsicum annum)

Rare peppers / tomato peppers

Variety description: The cross between tomato peppers and sweet chocolate produces heavily ribbed, thick-fleshed and mild, aromatic, rather sweet fruits. The fruits change color from dark green to chocolate brown. They have all the advantages of both plants. Ideal for grilling, salads or vegetable pans. Can also be grown outdoors.

Cultivation: Before sowing, moisten the soil, sprinkle seeds on top, cover very thinly and press down lightly. At 20°-26°C, the seeds germinate after 8-14 days.

Care: Give the young plants suitable fertilizer at the beginning of May. Special tomato and pepper fertilizer has a long-term effect and can be easily worked into the soil. The location should be bright to sunny and warm. Water generously. At night, the temperature should not fall below 16°C.

Pepper plants always look neat and become even more beautiful when the fruits turn from green to red in late summer/early autumn or decorate the balcony or terrace in yellow or dark purple. Then the harvest takes place and you can use this healthy vegetable in a variety of ways. Enjoy your meal!

• Use suitable humus-rich soil or ready-made special soil.
• It is best to sow in pots straight away. February to April is ideal. For outdoor cultivation, the end of April to mid-May is sufficient. The cultivation period is 12-14 weeks, depending on the variety.
• Fertilize generously with tomato/pepper fertilizer or lots of compost.
• For good soil, you should water a lot, as the plants develop few roots and therefore cannot store much.
• Give the young plants a stick to support them
• Break out the first flower/fruit. This increases the yield of the ripening fruit.
• The water used for watering must not be colder than 14°C.
