Habanero Yellow Chilli Seeds – 10 seeds to grow at home
Habanero Yellow chilli seeds (10 pcs) are seeds of the chilli plant Habanero Yellow (Capsicum chinense), which grows approx. 80 cm tall and bears yellow fruits approx. 5 cm long. The heat of the fruits is approx. 300,000 SHU (Extra category, extra hot), and ripening takes 60 days on average.
A polytunnel or greenhouse is ideal for growing chillies from seed, but you can also raise Habanero Yellow at home on a windowsill or in a pot on the balcony. We sow in mid-February and plant outside in May, once there is no more risk of night frosts.

Habanero Yellow has yellow, lantern-shaped fruits with a fruity taste and strong heat. In colour it complements red varieties beautifully, both in the garden bed and in sauces.
How to sow chilli seeds – germination and young plants
- Sowing: mid-February in seed compost, 2 – 3 seeds per cell (not every seed germinates)
- Germinating chilli seeds: the ideal temperature is 24 – 30 °C; keep the compost moist but not wet
- After germination: room temperature and plenty of light – in winter, LED lighting helps
- Repotting: move stronger seedlings into larger pots
- Planting out: in May after the last night frosts – into a polytunnel, greenhouse, garden bed or a pot on the balcony
Tip: to start your seedlings you can use our GROW BOX with LED lighting – a mini greenhouse for your table that includes everything you need, seeds included. If you do not want to wait, choose ready-grown chilli plants instead.
What is it good with?
Make a golden habanero hot sauce, a fruity salsa or a marinade for chicken and fish, or combine it with red habaneros for a colourful batch.
Who is it for?
