Jalapeños are a classic Mexican and TexMex snacking variety. Mostly used green, although they get a little sweeter as they turn red. Rated at 3,000-8,000 Scoville heat units, Jalapeños are quite mild compared with our other chillis, so they are ideal for anyone wary of spicy flavours! Delicious as an everyday chilli, pickled, or smoked to make chipotles. The compact, attractive bush produces an abundant crop over a long period.

Product details
How
Sow direct in warm conditions or raise in trays of Yates Black Magic Seed Raising Mix. Firm down and keep moist. Transplant when 6cm high. Early sowings should be covered with glass, as warmth is needed for germination.
Care
Choose a Sunny, well-drained position. Before sowing apply Yates Thrive Natural Blood & Bone. Frequent picking encourages more fruit. Begin picking when green, or for hotter taste, harvest when red.
Hint
Great companion plant for basil, marjoram and parsley. After handling seed or fruit, wash hands well to avoid irritating skin or eyes.
Storage
Store in a cool dry place away from direct Sunlight. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
