Habanero Catle Chili Seeds

Information: Habaneros are among the hottest chillies in the world. The Catle is no exception, as it really heats things up with a heat level of 10. It has an intensely fruity flavour with a smoky aroma.

The Catle grows to a height of around 60 - 90 cm and becomes quite vigorous and bushy. It bears a large number of dark red fruits that are reminiscent of small pumpkins.

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.
