Dried Big Black Mama Pepper
Dried Big Black Mama Pepper is the dried version of an ornamental, hot pepper belonging to the species Capsicum chinense, valued for its very dark foliage and elongated pods of intense purple that turn nearly black at full ripeness.
The Big Black Mama Plant
The plant has a compact habit with purple-black foliage, highly decorative. The fruits are tapered, with a glossy black-purple color, harvested when they reach maximum color and heat concentration.
How to Sow Big Black Mama
Sow in a heated seedbed between February and March, keeping temperatures constant at 25-28°C: Capsicum chinense germination usually takes 2-4 weeks.
How to Grow Big Black Mama
Transplant from May, once night temperatures stay stably above 15°C. It prefers full sun, fertile well-drained soil, regular watering without waterlogging and periodic fertilization.
Heat Level and Care Tips for Big Black Mama
The heat level is high: it is always recommended to use disposable gloves when handling fresh or dried fruits, avoiding contact with eyes and mucous membranes.
Diseases and Pests of Big Black Mama
Like other Capsicum chinense, it can be affected by aphids, spider mites and whitefly, especially under protected cultivation with insufficient ventilation.
Properties and Uses of Big Black Mama
The capsaicin in the fruits has thermogenic properties and stimulates circulation. Dried Big Black Mama pepper, with an intense, slightly fruity flavor, is used as powder or as a base for concentrated hot sauces.
