Aloha Everyone,
Mahalo for all of your questions. And best of luck with your newly germinating, or planted Bhut Jolokia pepper plants. Very good to hear that just about everyone is having great luck.
Hey, you two who did not soak the Bhut seeds overnight before germinating. You know who you are! You gotta listen to the old man. These seeds are a bit strange as far as germination goes. It helps tremendously to soak the seeds in water the night before. You will get faster germination and a higher percentage of success.
Out of all of the orders we have received, we have had only 2 instances of sub par germination. And that’s a tiny percentage of our sales. So, good for you. You are listening. Now soak those seeds!
almost all my bhut seeds have germinated in a short amount of time while my friend did not soak his seeds and he has had no luck with habaneros which germ faster than bhut jolokia.

8 out of ten up in just seven days! Turned a spare bedroom into a greenhouse using a space heater and a humidifier. Room is 88 degrees with 30 percent humidity on the sunny side of the house.
Water them using spray bottle that I filled with boiled water.

I planted 120 seeds without soaking and 8 days later I had 113 seedlings.
