Jalapeño is the backbone of salsas, poppers, and pickled rings—thick‑walled, 3" pods with moderate heat (2,500–8,000 Scovilles) and a grassy, green flavor when young. Let fruits ripen red for sweeter, smokier chipotles. Plants are compact and productive with steady water and sun. Capsaicin brings the heat and mild analgesic properties; gloves help at chopping time. For everyday spice you can control, grow a row of jalapeños and you’ll never run out.

How to Grow

Start seed indoors 6-8 weeks before last frost. A heat mat helps to speed up the germination process. Optimum soil temperature for seed germination is 65-85 degrees. Peppers generally have long growing seasons and grow slowly during cool temperatures. Delay transplanting until your soil has thoroughly warmed up in the spring. A week before transplanting time, harden off plants by exposing them to an increasing number of hours outdoors each day. Peppers are less cold tolerant than tomatoes.
