Karen Chili Thai Pepper Seeds (Prik Kariang) (Capsicum annuum)
Karen Chili, also known as Prik Kariang, is a traditional Thai pepper variety valued for its fiery heat, compact growth, and versatility in both culinary and ornamental applications. Originating from Thailand, this chili has been a staple in local cuisine for generations, adding bold spice to dishes while maintaining a bright, fresh flavor profile. Its reliable productivity and striking appearance make it a favorite among gardeners and chefs alike.
Karen Chili plants are compact and bushy, growing to a height of approximately 50–70 cm. The peppers are small and slender, typically measuring 3–5 cm in length and 0.5–1 cm in diameter. They begin as vibrant green fruits and mature to a bright, glossy red, often creating a visually stunning contrast on the plant. With a Scoville Heat Unit range of 70,000–100,000, these chilies pack a significant punch, making them perfect for spice enthusiasts. Fruits mature approximately 80–90 days after transplanting, and the plant produces prolifically throughout the growing season.
The flavor of Karen Chili is bold and zesty, with a balance of heat and tanginess. It is widely used in Thai cuisine for dishes like stir-fries, curries, and spicy dips, as well as for drying into chili flakes or grinding into powder. Its fiery kick enhances the depth of flavor in any recipe, making it an essential ingredient for authentic cooking.
Cultivation Recommendations:
• Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before the last frost. Maintain a consistent temperature of 26–30°C for optimal germination, which typically occurs in 7–14 days.
• Transplant seedlings outdoors once soil temperatures exceed 20°C. Ensure full sunlight and space plants 30–45 cm apart, with rows 60 cm apart.
• Use well-draining, fertile soil with a pH range of 6.0–7.0. Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist but avoid overwatering.
• Fertilize with a balanced formula during early growth and switch to a phosphorus-rich fertilizer during flowering and fruit production.
• Harvest chilies when they reach their full red color and firm texture for maximum flavor and heat.
Karen Chili is ideal for spice lovers and gardeners looking to grow a high-yield, low-maintenance pepper plant. Its compact size makes it suitable for small gardens, containers, and even decorative purposes, while its culinary versatility ensures it is a valuable addition to any kitchen.
Each packet contains 10 premium-quality seeds, carefully selected for high germination rates. Orders are processed within 1–2 days and typically delivered within 1–2 weeks across India and worldwide.
