Naga Jolokia Purple - Indian PC-1 Chili Seeds
Info: The Die Naga Jolokia Purple - Indian PC-1 chili is an absolute beauty. The plants are robust, grow relatively large (approx. 1 metre), and have beautiful purple coloured leaves. They develop variety of long peppers, which ripen from dark violet or almost black to red. The fruits have a very intense spiciness and are suitable for making hot sauces, for cooking, seasoning and drying.
Care: The germination temperature is between 22 und 28°C (12 - 21 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.
Tips for successful chili cultivation can be found in our Chili Cultivation Instructions and in the Chili Diary.
