Habanero Kukulkan Chili Seeds

Information: The Habaneros Kukulkan is a new variety in the Habanero range and, with a heat level of 10+, is one of the hottest of the hot ones. It has an intensely fruity flavour and the intensely yellow-orange fruits are around 3 - 5 cm in size.

The Kukulkan grows to a height of around 90 cm and becomes quite vigorous and bushy. It bears a large number of fruits, which ripen from green to yellow-orange in colour.

Care: Germination temperature is between 22°C and 28°C (germination period: 7 - 21 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. The earliest time to place the plants outside is 2 to 3 weeks after the last frost. If grown in plant pots, you can also take care of them through the winter. It might be necessary to cut them back slightly and place them in a light place where it is at least 15°C.
