Organic 7 Pot Brainstrain Yellow Chili Seeds

Information: The 7 pod chillies (also known as 7 pot chillies) are some of the hottest chillies in the world and on a same high level as the bhut jolokia or Trinidad Scorpion. It gets its name from the idea that just one pepper is enough to spice up 7 full cooking pots (pods).
The fruits of the 7 pod yellow brain strain chili have an inverted tip, an uneven surface and therefore look like a brain. They can also grow to quite a considerable size. They ripen from lime green to yellow, have a tropical fruity taste that some claim to be reminiscent of pineapples and are extremely hot. Thanks to the thin outer walls, these peppers can be dried well and ground into a powder.
You should always use disposable gloves when handling these chillies.

Care: Germination temperature is between 24°C and 30°C (germination period: 10-22 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.
