AAS Winner.You guessed it, Pot-a-peno pepper is the perfect jalapeño pepper to grow in a pot. Tidy and compact hybrid plants grow 12-15 in. tall, with dense foliage to protect harvests from sun scald. Expect heavy yields of 35-50 mildly spicy 3-4 in. thick-walled peppers per plant. Pot-a-peno peppers can be harvested green, or wait until they are red for a sweeter spicy flavor. AAS judges praised how easily the fruit pulls off the plant to harvest, minimizing the risk of damage to the branches.
Growing Pot-a-peno Hot Pepper Seeds
Sow hot pepper seeds indoors in cell packs or flats, 8 weeks before the last anticipated frost. At 70-90°F., germination is in 8-25 days. When the soil has warmed to at least 60°F., transplant into the garden 18-24 in. apart.
