How are Espiritu Santo 10 chili seeds grown correctly?

Espiritu Santo 10 chili seeds need a warm place with temperatures between 18 and 27 degrees or more. Espiritu Santo 10 chili seeds love the sun, but the small plants need an acclimatization period of about a week to 10 days, during which the small plants are acclimated to the sun by the hour. When the plants are established, it is best to transplant them into 10 liter pots and support them with a small stick. You can also plant them in the soil of your garden. As long as the plant is small, the substrate should be kept moist. Good drainage is important as the roots should not be standing in water.

Larger plants no longer need much water. It's best to let the soil surface dry out and not water until the leaves become loose. The fruit will be sharper if the plants are kept relatively dry prior to harvest. Because of the severe itching, it is recommended to wear gloves when harvesting and handling the fruit.
