Organic 7 Pot Congo Chocolate Chili Seeds
Information: The 7 Pot Congo Chocolate is an extremely hot chilli that matures to a dark brown colour. Unlike many other extremely hot chillies, it still has a distinctly fruity, aromatic flavour that goes perfectly with Caribbean dishes and exotic fish dishes. The light citrus note emphasises the flavour of the seafood and gives it an additional extreme heat that is not easily forgotten.
The plant grows to a height of around 100 cm and bears a large number of dark brown fruits, which are excellent for seasoning, adding to sauces or as a flavouring in all kinds of exotic dishes. Let the monster among chillies into your kitchen.
Care: Germination temperature is between 28°C and 32°C (germination period: 8 - 14 days); it is therefore recommended to use a greenhouse and a heating mat. The plants need fresh, well-fertilised permeable soil and should not be left in standing water. They should be placed in a sunny, sheltered place with at least 6 hours of sunlight per day, if not more. The earliest time to place the plants outside is 2 to 3 weeks after the last frost. If grown in plant pots, you can also take care of them through the winter. It might be necessary to cut them back slightly and place them in a light place where it is at least 15°C.
You can find plenty of useful tips for successfully growing chili plants in our Chili Growing Guide and in the Chili Journal.
