Red Skin Chili Seeds
Information: The Red Skin Chili is a delicious, red ripening, bell pepper with medium sized, blocky fruits without any heat. The harvest takes place from July to October and the red fruits have a great, sweet, flavourful taste. Paprika plants love a sunny and sheltered location and can be cultivated both in pots and outdoors. These peppers also ripen relatively early and have a long harvest time.
Care: Germination temperature is between 22°C and 28°C (germination period: 8-21 days); it is therefore recommended to use a greenhouse and a heating mat. 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.
You can find plenty of useful tips for successfully growing chili plants in our Chili Cultivation Instructions and in the Chili Diary.
