Hot Pepper Chili Pusa Jwala (Capsicum annuum)
Hot Pepper Pusa Jwala is one of the most popular chili varieties in India, cherished for its high yields and moderate heat. Developed by the Indian Agricultural Research Institute, this variety is widely grown for its culinary versatility, excellent productivity, and adaptability to various climates.
Plant Characteristics
The Pusa Jwala chili plant grows to a height of 60–90 cm and produces an abundance of slender, elongated fruits. Each chili measures 10–12 cm in length and weighs 8–12 grams. The fruits mature from green to bright red, with a smooth, glossy texture. This variety is known for its high resistance to pests and diseases, making it ideal for home gardens and commercial cultivation.
Flavor and Nutritional Qualities
The chilies of Pusa Jwala offer a moderate heat level with a sharp, clean flavor that enhances any dish. Rich in capsaicin, vitamins A and C, and antioxidants, these chilies are not only flavorful but also beneficial for boosting metabolism, improving immunity, and supporting overall health.
Cultivation Recommendations
Pusa Jwala thrives in full sun and well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. Sow seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost, maintaining a soil temperature of 24–30°C for optimal germination. Transplant seedlings outdoors when the temperature stabilizes, spacing plants 40–50 cm apart. Regular watering, mulching, and light fertilization promote healthy growth and prolific fruiting. Chilies are ready to harvest 70–80 days after transplanting and can be picked green or left to ripen fully to red.
Applications and Uses
The Pusa Jwala chili is perfect for fresh use in curries, chutneys, and salsas. It is also ideal for drying to make chili powder or flakes, which are widely used in Indian and global cuisines. The moderate heat and bright color make these chilies versatile for pickling, preserving, or adding spice to any dish.
