Piri piri seeds

I have got some piri piri seeds and i have never grown them before. Do i need to do anything special with them or can i just pop them in the green house and leave them to it?

As far as I am aware you just treat them like any other Chilli. Do you grow other Chillies? Where did the seed come from, were they self-saved, bought, or something else? Might be a bit late to start them now and get a crop this year, but if you have sufficient seed it's worth a try.

I havent grown chilies or peppers before. The seed was given to me and i was told it came from eBay lol so not such a reliable source but there is plenty of seed. so i went ahead and planted some this afternoon and its in the green house now.

Good luck with them. Just think, if it works out you could try making your own Piri Piri sauce! Does your greenhouse stay pretty warm overnight? Chillies require a good bit of constant warmth to germinate. If you've sown them in pots you may want to try bringing a couple inside on a sunny windowsill and see which germinates first.
