Long Red Ringo Chili Seeds

Information: Long Red Ringo chillies have wonderful long red fruits with a sweet and juicy flesh and can grow up to 20cm in length. The plants are very well-suited to growing in pots, but they can also thrive very well outdoors in a sheltered place. When ripe, these pointed peppers have a brilliant red colour and reach up to 20cm in length. They are not spicy and taste delicious eaten raw in salads or grilled on the barbecue. They can also be used to make pickles, for cooking or roasting.

Care: Germination temperature is between 22°C and 28°C (germination period: 8-21 days); it is therefore recommended to use a greenhouse and a heating mat. 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. Put the plants outside approx. 2 to 3 weeks after the last frost. 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.
