A Chilli is a type of pepper as well as a renewable resource food item that can be planted or consumed. When consumed, it restores Health and Hunger to a Blockhead. The pepper can also be placed in a block of dirt or compost to grow a chilli plant for farming additional chillis.
Appearance
A young chilli plant is dark green and fans out and up from a single low stem. It will make several small increases in size as it grows, but remains no more than a single block tall.
A mature chilli plant is two blocks tall and covered in dark red "peppers."
Farming
Maximum yield when harvesting chillies is achieved by using a machete on a chilli plant bearing the pepper, producing about three peppers and removing the plant. If harvested just before maturing it can still produce a full crop, but a young plant will produce only one pepper.
A chilli plant will be mature in about two days. It will remain mature for about a day and then drop a single pepper and revert to its young stage. It will go through this cycle several times before completely de-spawning, producing a total of up to half a dozen peppers.
Where Found
Chilli plants can be found growing in tropical regions.
Uses
Chilli peppers are only usable as food and for starting new chilli plants.
