amazing seeds for planting hot and mild chillies

We have a great selection of chilli seeds to choose from. These heat loving plants are best grown from seeds as you have much more choice than buying plants from a garden centre.

Chillies are not the easiest plants to grow from seeds but with a bit of help you can have success. Sow the chilli seeds early in the spring indoors, at a temperature of at least 20 Celsius as chillies love heat from the very beginning. Successful germination will occur in 10-14 days, during this period make sure you do not overwater the chilli seeds. You must be patient with chillies, make sure they are in a warm place, warmer the better. Germinating the seeds is not easy and the seedlings will be slow growing first but with experience you can too grow hot and tasty chilli peppers.
