My b/f's chile sprouted and how long before?

Question

My b/f planted some chile seeds I bought for him and they sprouted. How long before we can pick chiles? I want to juice the chiles through my juicer.

cactus, you never said how long before I get chiles. Also, when you said don't feed, what do you mean by that?

Can anyone give me a simple straight answer? How long before I will have ripe chile peppers.

Also, to the moron who asked me how to spell chile. It is spelled chile.

LOL, you people are truly ignorant. Please learn how to spell.

Answer 1

How long it takes from planting hot peppers seeds to the time to harvest depends on the type of chili that was planted, & other variables related to plant growth. Keep in mind that some harvest chilies in their green stage for certain recipes.

This diary recorded these results for hot pepper plants that were planted from seed on April 4:

xxxxxxxx germination First pepper Ripened
Habanero 13.3 days End of Aug. 1st of Oct
Tabasco- 18.3 days Mid Aug. 1st of Nov

The next year, when Habanero seeds were planted Feb 28... the first peppers came at the start of Aug. & fully ripened at the end of Sept.

(I clicked on the '97 & '98 diary ; scroll down page to find table of contents)

If you have a Red Chili it will take 80-85 days before you can pick it. Habenero ...95 days, Super Cayenne 70 days, Tam Jalapeno 65-70 days.

Good luck! Hope this helps.

Answer 2

If we are all so ignorant then so must be the dictionary writers.

From wikipedia:

Chile, officially the Republic of Chile (Spanish: República de Chile (help·info)), is a country in South America occupying a long and narrow coastal strip wedged between the Andes mountains and the Pacific Ocean. The Pacific forms the country's entire western border, with Peru to the north, Bolivia to the northeast, Argentina to the east, and the Drake Passage at the country's southernmost tip. Chile claims 1,250,000 km² of territory in Antarctica.

The chili pepper, or more simply just "chili", is the fruit of species of the plant Capsicum from the nightshade family, Solanaceae.

Apparently the Chili pepper is only spelled Chile in America and as this is the UK and Ireland pages only YOU are WRONG as usual.

Answer 3

Hey moron, Chile is a country.

Chile, officially the Republic of Chile (Spanish: República de Chile, is a country in South America occupying a long and narrow coastal strip wedged between the Andes mountains and the Pacific Ocean.

The chili pepper, or more simply just "chili", is the fruit of species of the plant Capsicum from the nightshade family, Solanaceae.
The name, which is spelled differently in many regions (chili, chile or chilli), comes from Nahuatl via the Spanish word chile. The term chili in most of the world refers exclusively to the smaller, hot types of capsicum.

You changed nationalities from English, who spells like an American to Spanish now?

Moron.

Added:
Ashley, you're such a hoot and a moron.
Change your nationality claim from British to Spanish, apologise to Rookethorne and I'll take back what I said.
MORON.

Answer 4

I bought a chile plant and have got loads of chiles, they are green at the moment but going strong. Keep it watered but don't feed until the chiles have formed and the flowers have died off.

Answer 5

Probably next summer, and it is chilli, Chile is a country.

Depending on the variety and how they are grown, the seeds should have been sewn in Feb/Apr, unless they're being grown under special lighting and conditions.

Answer 6

Chile? isn't that a republic in South America.

Perhaps you mean Chili - the hot pepper?

Answer 7

Depends on variety . Anywhere from 60 -150 days . 90-100 is most likely. The maturity dates that you might find listed with a given variety, are from date of transplant, so you need to add about 4 -6 weeks to that.

Answer 8

when the chiles are ready, about 2-3 in. long while red or after they turn green whichever you prefer

Answer 9

Will take 3 - 4 months before you have a chilli ready to pick and juice....depending on how you look after after it and on what variety it is.

Answer 10

They take a whilst, not something like a puppy avocado pit. Does he have a attractiveness ? you may have guacamole immediately. merely bypass all the way down to the save and by employing yet another one ! Then your little pal could have yet another pal to speak to once you're out!
