Big Mustard Mama Chilli

Growing Information:

1. Size and Staking: Big Mustard Mama plants can grow quite large, reaching up to 4 feet tall. Provide sturdy stakes for support, especially as the plant begins to bear the weight of its prolific yield.
2. Soil and Sunlight: Plant in well-draining soil with plenty of sunlight. These chili plants thrive in full sun conditions, ensuring optimal growth and fruit development.
3. Watering: Maintain consistent soil moisture, allowing the soil to dry slightly between watering. Avoid overwatering, as it may lead to root-related issues.
4. Temperature and Climate: Big Mustard Mama prefers warm temperatures. If growing in a colder climate, consider starting seeds indoors and transplanting once the risk of frost has passed.
5. Harvesting: Pods mature to a mustard-green color and are ready for harvest when they are around 2-3 inches in diameter and almost 3 inches long. Use gloves when handling, given their extreme heat.
6. Seed Saving: If desired, save seeds from mature pods for future planting. Ensure seeds are fully dry before storage to maintain their viability.
