Lasts up to: 21 weeks

- Please note! Only the fruits of the chili are edible, the rest of the plant is poisonous and should not be consumed.
- Piri piri Chili fruits have a heat level of up to 100.000 on Scoville heat units.
- You can speed up the germination process by raising the temperature to 79°F (26°C).
- If multiple seeds germinate in each pod, leave one seedling to grow per plant pod to ensure enough space and nutrients for the plant to grow.
- Do not cut or prune your Piri Piri Chili plant before fruiting – it will form flowers and fruits at the top of the plant.
- Once your plant is flowering, it needs to be pollinated by hand. Do this by gently shaking your plant to carry pollen from one blossom to the next.
- Warning! The leaves and seeds of the Piri Piri Chili can be hot too. It is always a good precaution to wash your hands after touching the chili plant. It is also best to avoid touching your eyes or other sensitive body parts after handling chilies.
