A true New Mexico classic - milder than a jalapeno - spicer than a bell pepper, spicer than anything at Taco Bell - but that’s without 20 packets of Diablo Sauce. Can reach up to a foot! A long pepper with excellent surface area for char marks in your roaster or pan. AND making green chile ristras and watch it ripen into a that dry dark/red - see doctor if you think that is you.

- Best started indoors, one month before last frost (check almanac.com/gardening/frostdates)

- plant seeds 1/4” deep in pots, best started with heating mats for quicker germination but will be fine put in the warmest area of the house – germinates in 7-10 days - place in area with most light to prevent getting leggy

- once at least 6” - transplant outside around 3ft apart with bat guano/compost/organic fertilizer—if you can - make sure to plant it in area with maximum sun or grow indoors with maximum lighting in at least a 3 gallon pot for full pepper growth.

- 70 days from transplant, 85 days from direct seed, plant in area with full sun and pinch flowers when young to promote vegetative growth.

Minimum 25 Seeds.
