Charlys Rosemary Chili Seeds

Information: The Charly`s Rosemary Chili is a very high-yielding variety that bears countless, very hot, small, upright growing chillies. The plants are quite robust and grow bushy and can grow up to 100 cm tall. The small red chillies are traditionally used in Turkey to flavour numerous dishes. The variety is an own breeding of the Turkish chili expert Charly Tepek, hence the name.

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. As the plants have a particularly long maturation period, it is recommended to grow them in a pot, so that you can easily bring the plant inside when the temperature falls below 12°C during the day, allowing all the fruits to ripen. To keep the plant over the winter, cut it back by 20cm after harvesting and place in a light place where it is at least 15°C.
