Jays Peach Ghost Scorpion Chili Seeds
Info: Jay`s Peach Ghost Scorpion is a cross between a Ghost Chile (Bhut Jolokia) and a Trinidad Scorpion and was bred by a Pennsylvanian farmer named Jay. The pods grow into many contorted shapes, often twisted, some having tails and all have a peach colour and a rough surface. Their flavour is tropical fruity, slightly sweet and floral. They are slightly less pungeant than a Bhut Jolokia with an immediate superhot burn.
Care: Germination temperature is between 22°C and 30°C (germination period: 6-20 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. Place the plants outside around 2 to 3 weeks after the last frost.
You can find plenty of useful tips for successfully growing chili plants in our Chili Growing Guide and in the Chili Journal.
