Spice Up Your Life with Homegrown Jalapenos!
Meet the Jalapeno—a mild-to-moderate firecracker that brings the perfect kick to countless dishes. With a heat level of 2,500–8,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU), it’s got enough zest to liven up any meal without overwhelming your taste buds.
This Grow-Your-Own Jalapeno Kit makes it easy to cultivate these green gems right at home. Inside, you’ll find everything needed to get started: seeds, soil pellets, and a reusable growing can.
It’s the ideal gift for foodies, green thumbs, or anyone who loves to add a personal touch to their cooking with fresh, homegrown flavour.
How To Grow
- Lift the ring, pulling up and back to open the top of the container.
- Take out all contents and make sure the plastic cover is secured tightly to the bottom.
- Place the soil pellets in a bowl and add 200ml of warm water. In a few minutes when the pellets have fully expanded, transfer the soil into the can.
- Plant the seeds 5mm deep and cover them with the surrounding soil.
- Place the can in a light and warm position. Keep the soil moist but do not over-water. Soil needs to be well drained. The soil will turn light brown as it dries, indicating the need for more water.
- When plants are approx. 5cm tall, thin out to 1 strongest seedling, transplanting the remaining to other pots or the garden.
- Seedlings emerge 7-21 days.
- Feed biweekly with a liquid fertiliser when fruits begin to form.
- Caution: Can irritate skin and eyes
WARNING! Harmful via skin.
