Cherry Bomb / Cherry Pepper Chili Seeds

Info: The Cherry Bomb gets its name from the fact that the chilies resemble cherries in their appearance. The plants remain very small (approx. 65 cm in height) and most have a small stem with a protruding crown. The plants usually produce many fruits, ensuring a beautiful sight in the garden or on the balcony. The fruits are very delicious, cherry-sized round peppers with a pleasant spiciness, making them excellent for pickling or stuffing e.g. with cream cheese. The spiciness can vary strongly from fruit to fruit.

Care: The germination temperature is between 20 und 28°C (7 - 20 day germination period), therefore the use of a greenhouse and a heating mat is recommended. The plants need fresh, well-fertilised, permeable soil, and do not tolerate waterlogging. They should be planted in a sunny, protected place with at least 6 hours of sunlight - preferably more. Put the plants outside approx. 2 to 3 weeks after the last frost.
