Pepper Scotch Bonnet Yellow
Very hot pepper with strong aroma that gets its name from the Scottish hat it resembles. The Scotch Bonnet chillies measure 2.5 to 4cm long by 2.5 to 3cm wide and they mature from a lovely pale green to yellow. Using a good quality, moist seed compost, sow your seeds in a propagator and cover with 6mm (¼") compost. Place on a windowsill or in a greenhouse at approximately 21-24°C (70-75°F) to germinate, usually 7-14 days. Transfer seedlings into 7.5cm (3") pots and grow on. Once they are 15cm (6") tall, transfer to 25cm (10") pots of John Innes No.3 and keep on a warm, sunny windowsill or greenhouse (once warm enough).
