The Heat is On - Growing Workshop 12/06/2027

A Hands-On Chilli Growing Workshop at South Devon Chilli Farm

Saturday 12th June @ 10.30am

Things are heating up! Your chilli plants are growing, getting stronger and starting to demand a little more space. Join us at South Devon Chilli Farm for The Heat is On – a practical, hands-on workshop all about taking your chilli plants to the next stage of their growing journey.

As your plants mature, giving them the right space, nutrients and growing conditions becomes increasingly important. During this workshop, we'll show you how to pot on your young chilli plants from propagation plugs into 1 or 2 litre pots, helping them develop strong roots and healthy growth.

We'll share our tried-and-tested tips for getting the very best out of your maturing plants, exploring the environmental factors that influence their development and how to keep them thriving as they head towards flowering and fruiting.

Whether you're growing chillies for the first time or want to get even better results from your plants, you'll pick up plenty of practical advice and expert knowledge along the way.

What's included:

• 🪴 Hands-on potting on: Learn how to transplant plug plants into 1 or 2 litre pots, giving their roots room to grow.

• 🌱 Getting the best from your plants: Discover how to encourage strong, healthy growth as your chillies mature.

• 🌡️ Perfect growing conditions: Explore the importance of temperature, light, humidity, watering and other environmental factors.

• 🏡 Behind-the-scenes nursery tour: Enjoy a tour of our nurseries and see how we grow our chillies here at the farm.

By the end of the workshop, you'll have a better understanding of what your maturing chilli plants need and the confidence to keep them growing strong as the season heats up.

Give your chillies room to grow – the heat is most definitely on!
