Where do habanero peppers come from?
EAT ME habanero peppers come from the Netherlands, Spain and Morocco. Habanero peppers are grown from seed to plant by propagators. They are then transferred to pots (Spain and Morocco). or stone wool slabs (the Netherlands). Once the plants are large enough, they grow on in open fields or in a greenhouse.
After 6-8 weeks they are ready for harvest. The vibrant red or yellow colour shows that the peppers are ready to be picked.
