Cuidados e Dicas
- How long does it take to grow?
The malagueta or cayenne pepper can take between 10 to 15 days to germinate and 6 to 8 months to harvest.
- Will it grow again?
The malagueta is a perennial plant, meaning it lasts more than two years.
- How often should I water it?
The malagueta enjoys moist soil, but not soggy. Check with your finger in the soil: if it feels dry, water near the soil with the equivalent of a coffee cup. In summer, it requires more regular watering. Remember that the Bottle Garden does not have a drainage hole, and if it retains too much water at the bottom, it may harm the plant.
- Should I place it outside or transfer it to a pot?
Our kits are designed for indoor use, in a location with light and direct sunlight, but they can be placed outdoors. It is not necessary to transfer it to a pot; the Bottle Garden has enough space for the malaguetas to grow.
- Are there white flies on the leaves?
Your plant is infested with whiteflies. To combat this, you can dissolve 1 teaspoon of soap flakes and add 5 drops of oil to half a liter of warm water, then place it in a spray bottle. Spray until the whiteflies are well covered. You can also use neem oil, which is a natural insect repellent.
