Dried Pink Tiger Salmon Pepper

Dried Pink Tiger Salmon Pepper is an Italian SuperHot hybrid belonging to the species Capsicum chinense, prized for its large, elongated fruit and eye-catching color.

The Pink Tiger Salmon Plant

The plant produces good-sized elongated fruits with a bright yellow color fading to dark red at the tip, a striking tiger-like effect that gives the variety its name.

How to Sow Pink Tiger Salmon

Sow in a heated seedbed between February and March, keeping temperatures constant at 25-28°C until germination, which may take 3-4 weeks given the high heat of this genotype.

How to Grow Pink Tiger Salmon

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 potassium-rich fertilization during fruiting.

Heat Level and Care Tips for Pink Tiger Salmon

The heat level is extreme (about 500,000 SHU): gloves are essential when handling the fruits, carefully avoiding contact with eyes and mucous membranes.

Diseases and Pests of Pink Tiger Salmon

It can be affected by aphids, spider mites and whitefly, especially under protected cultivation with poor ventilation; good air circulation reduces the risk of powdery mildew.

Properties and Uses of Pink Tiger Salmon

The high capsaicin content gives strong thermogenic and metabolism-stimulating properties. Dried Pink Tiger Salmon pepper, prized for its two-tone color and strong heat, is used ground into powder or flakes for very spicy sauces.
