Habanero Big Sun Chili Seeds
Info: Here comes the sun! The Habanero Big Sun Chili has juicy, flavourful fruits which ripen to a bright yellow-orange. The special thing about it is that the fruits ripen from green to yellow as if they have been painted. The plants are bushy and reach up to 85 cm in height. The Habaneros have a fantastic, fruity flavour and an intense spiciness. The chilies are suitable for making hot sauces and salsas, and for drying and cooking.
General Info: The Habanero variety probably comes from the Yucatan region of Mexico. While the name “Habanero” means “from Havana” in English, they are only found occasionally in Cuba. They are still mainly cultivated on the Yucatan peninsula, although there they are predominantly orange and yellow Habanero varieties. They have an extremely fruity flavour that cannot be compared with many other chili types.
Care: The germination temperature is between 22 und 28°C (12 - 21 day germination period), therefore the use of a greenhouse and a heating mat is recommended. 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. 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.
