300mg Early Jalapeño Pepper Seeds - Non-GMO, Mild-Medium Heat

Early Jalapeño Pepper Seeds produce compact, productive plants that bear classic jalapeño peppers with mild to medium heat. These non-GMO seeds are a favorite for gardeners who want to grow their own fresh peppers for salsas, stuffing, pickling, and everyday cooking. The early maturity makes this variety a reliable choice for short-season gardens and container growing.

Jalapeño peppers are versatile in the kitchen and easy to grow in full sun. The plants are well-suited to raised beds, vegetable gardens, and patio containers, providing a steady harvest of green peppers that can be enjoyed fresh or allowed to ripen to red for a sweeter, slightly different flavor.

Planting & Care

Start jalapeño seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last expected frost date. Sow seeds about 1/4 inch deep in a seed-starting mix and keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Maintain a warm temperature (around 70-85°F) for good germination. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, transplant them into larger pots or harden them off and plant outdoors after the danger of frost has passed.

Set plants in full sun and well-drained soil. Water regularly, especially during dry spells, and mulch to conserve moisture. Fertilize lightly if needed. Peppers can be harvested when green and full-sized, or left to ripen to red for a sweeter flavor. Watch for common pests like aphids and manage as needed.
