Chilli  Care

 

Sunlight Ornamental chilli plant like sunshine, the more sunlight the fruits receive the hotter they will grow
Watering Keep your ornamental chilli plant well watered and mulched. But don’t over water.
The soil should be free draining. Chillies don’t grow in swamps.
Soil Chillies grow well in a well drained, fertile soil. If planting in pots be sure to use a good organic compost that will retain moisture.
Temperature Chilli seeds need 20°C to germinate, and it should be 30°C or more for the fruit to ripen. Night temperatures should not drop below 15°C.
Fertilizer If your soil is poor, you’ll have to fertilize your chillies. When fertilizing chillies keep in mind that, like their relatives and indeed most fruiting plants, chillies like potassium. Too much nitrogen will make them grow lots of soft leaves and no fruit.
Harvest Season
  • Regular harvesting will encourage your ornamental chilli plant to re-flower and produce new chillies so you can always pick and store a glut of fruits.
  • If you do have a bit of a glut of chillies in mid summer, they can be made into a simple paste by blending with salt and oil in a food processor or alternatively fill a bottle of good quality olive oil with whole red chillies and in six months you will have your very own chilli oil.
  • You can also freeze chillies in an air tight container or bag but once defrosted they will be soft and need to be used straight away so it is a good idea to freeze them in ac portions.
