Growing Tips:

Start your Hatch Red Hot Chile Seeds - Sandia Hot indoors 8 weeks before the last frost. Plant seeds 1/4" deep in sterile media, maintaining 85°F bottom heat and bright light. Keep the soil moist, and expect germination in 7-21 days. Transplant seedlings once they develop 6 true leaves, spacing them 30" apart in rich soil or large 5-gallon containers.
