Are there special instructions for germinating and starting the bhut jolokia seeds/plants?
A. Yes, the seeds should be soaked overnight before sowing. Seeds should be kept at 80-85 degrees F in a 70-90% relative humidity. Sprouts will be seen in 10 -15 days but may take as many as 30. Once plants have reached 2 inches they need to be transplanted if growing in seed starters. Young plants can tolerate cool temperatures but they will be much happier in a warm, humid greenhouse. This plant grows very slowly so be patient and do not attempt to rush it to flower.
