Firstly please wash your hands when you have used this kit. Be careful handling the chilli seeds. Once the chillies are in their final spot, you can feed with a standard tomato feed. For best results invest in a specialist chilli feed. Follow the instructions on the bottle.

Sow Jan-Apr. Sow Jan-Apr. Plant out May-Jun. Harvest Aug, Sept, Oct.

Sow the seeds individually in cell trays of quality seed compost, cover lightly and place in the propagator or sealed poly bag. Water so that the compost is moist but not soggy.

The seeds should germinate within 14 days at this temperature, once the seedlings have grown two true leaves, remove from the propagator to a warm, light, frost free location.

The young seedlings will also benefit from a weak feed at this stage.

Once your seedlings have reached 3-4 true leaves the young plants will benefit from potting on into fresh compost.

Use a 9cm pot and mix a slow release fertiliser into the compost if available.

Grow on until they reach about 20cm tall then pot into their final growing container. For ease, we think chilli plants are best grown in large pots - we prefer 30cm diameter minimum. Again mix a slow release fertiliser into the compost.

Provide the plants with some support by staking with a small cane. This will help support the plant once fruiting.

Place back in a warm, light position and again keep frost-free.

Probably the most important part of growing chillies is the watering, they are very thirsty plants. During hot periods, you will need to water regularly - dry compost will lead to a check in plant growth and reduced yields.

If you intend to grow outside on the patio the key is to find a sunny, sheltered spot that is out of the wind. Plants can usually be placed outside June onwards.
