Yellow biquinho chillli peppers are small, tear-drop shaped pods, averaging three centimeters in length, with a straight to slightly curved center and an elongated, pointed tip. The skin ripens from pale green to bright yellow when mature and is glossy, smooth, and firm. The medium to thick flesh is yellow and crisp. Yellow biquinho chilli peppers are crunchy and juicy with an initially tangy, citrus taste followed by a sweet, fruity, and slightly smoky flavor with mild heat.
The Scoville heat unit for this variety is : 500 to 1 000 SHU
Important to Note.
Chilli peppers can be tricky to germinate and especially so with the rarer super hot varieties patience is needed as they can take up to 40 days to germinate in ideal conditions. We also recommend that a heat pad is used when germinating chillies of the Capsicum chinense species. All of our chillis are grown in isolation to avoid cross pollination. As chillis are rampant cross pollinators it is not uncommon for variances to appear in the fruit as chillis can cross pollinate with fruit from plants a few houses or kilometres away. The only way to ensure with 100% certainty that cross pollination does not occur is to use pollination bags on each flower when the plant starts to bud and before the flowers open.
