Description of the plant:
We have an attractive range of vegetables that can be grown on your terrace or balcony so you can harvest fresh fruit you produced yourself.Snacker® Chilli is a red, medium-hot, thin chilli pepper. If you feed it regularly it will set fruit until autumn. Mature fruit is vivid red and even though it softens a little or makes creases it is still excellent, only richer in taste.
Snacker® peppers are easy to grow. If possible, transplant purchased plants into larger, preferably black pots in order to accumulate heat, with good humus-rich substrate for vegetables. Place your plant in a sunny and warm place, and follow regular watering and feeding programme (once a week with a liquid fertilizer rich in phosphorus and potassium). Treat them with Polyversum in summer in order to protect the leaves from mildew. Polyversum is an organic method of beating fungi diseases. Such plants can be moved indoors in autumn to continue harvesting fruit until Christmas without ill foliage.
Chilli peppers are a great way of spicying your meals which should be hot. Snacker® chillies will bring hotness to your raw and cooked meals without setting fire to your mouth. Remove seeds before consumption.
