Bahamian Chili Pepper Seeds (Capsicum Annuum) From Bahama. CARIBBEAN GARDEN SEED

Species: Annuum | Origin: Bahama| Heat: Hot
a.k.a. Finger Pepper. From the Bahamas comes this prolific, slender hot pepper. The pointed fruits are borne in clusters, appearing like groups of fingers. Fruits grow up to 2 1/2″ long and have a hot flavor, registering up to 100,000 SHU. Bushy growth and colorful fruits could make this variety attractive as an ornamental as well. Peppers do very well grown in pots.
This pepper is extremely hot with an exceptionally strong pungent pepper taste. The plants grow to heights of 1 1/2 – 3 feet tall and are covered with hundreds of peppers of about 1/8 inch in diameter and 1 – 2 inches long.

When ripened to a fiery red it is used by the Vietnamese in cooking or pickled, but is seldom used as a fresh pepper because of the tremendous heat.

Sow seeds indoors ¼” deep. Peppers germinate best in warm soil, so gentle bottom heat may be helpful until seedlings emerge. Wait to transplant outdoors until soil is warm.
Pepper varieties come from tropical humid regions. The temperature, moisture, and air circulation all play a role in growing plants from seeds. Too little heat, too much moisture, and lack of air circulation will cause poor results. Do not use jiffy peat pots, plugs, or potting soil as the soil becomes too dry or too wet, which can lead to disease and fungus.We have experienced disease and low germination when using these types of products. Use Organic Seed Starting Material for best germination results.
Growing Peppers:
Peppers, like tomatoes, grow in well-drained fertile soil. Almost all peppers have the same requirements for successful growth. Plant them in good, well-drained, fertile soil – and make sure they get lots of sunlight and a good inch of water per week. In many ways, they mimic the same requirements needed for growing great tomatoes.
At Planting Time:
We plant all of our peppers with a good shovel full of compost in the planting hole, and then give them a good dose of compost tea every few weeks for the first 6 weeks of growth. We also mulch around each of our pepper plants with a good 1 to 2″ thick layer of compost.
Peppers often like to take their sweet time germinating. They can be up in a week, and some will take almost a month. Even with paper towel germination testing, they can take long. I am not sure why, but it is a normal occurrence. So plan and make sure you start them early enough! Also, remember they like heat to germinate so make sure you have a heating mat or something to keep the soil warm. Placing them up on top of the fridge often works too since it is normally warmer up there.
