Additional info:
Bird’s Eye Baby –chili grows small but fierce peppers! On the Scoville scale, Bird’s Eye Baby scores from 100,000 to 225,000.
As a comparison, the rather spicy Habanero-chili falls between 100 000 – 350 000 on Scoville scale.
Chillies germinate in about two weeks. Chilies grow slowly. A few months after sowing, the chili is ten centimetres tall and begins to crave more light. You can then add a Boosting Light Height Block to enhance plant growth.
As the first flowers appear, you can add a separate Blooming Light Height Block. The first harvest ripens typically 5-6 months after sowing.
