Chiles need warm conditions; don’t transplant outdoors until night temperatures stay securely above 55°F (13°C). Prepare soil well with aged manure or compost. Plant only robust seedlings with well-developed roots. Mulch plants to maintain even soil moisture. Keep well weeded, watered and fertilized.
Harvest when chiles have a high gloss and are ripened to rich deep red. Use these great tasting, fiery hot chiles fresh for chile sauce or paste, making fresh salsas, in stirfries, marinades or dry and chop for spicy chile flakes. To dry for year-round use, either use a dehydrator, or harvest individually and string from the stem end to hang in a warm, airy location.
