- Use a shallow flat or a recycled egg tray and a sterilized organic soil mix without fertilizer

- Bhut Jolokia seeds require the soil temperature to be between 75°F and 90°F -- a propagation matt will help keep the temperature consistent

- Sew seeds 1/4 of an inch into soil

- Soil must be kept reasonably moist, keep the right balance between being completely dried out and never allowed to become soggy

- They can take up to 35 days just to germinate. They also have an extremely long growing period, up to 160 days before harvest

If you follow these simple steps then you should have alot of success with your Bhut Jolokia Seeds
