Quick Facts (Grow Guide)

Botanical name	Capsicum annuum — Jalapeño (hot pepper)
Sun	Full sun (6–8+ hrs; warmth boosts yields)
Sowing method	Start indoors 8–10 weeks before last frost with bottom heat. Transplant after nights stay >55°F / 13°C and soil is warm; harden off gradually.
Sowing depth	¼″ / 6 mm (steady warmth & moisture)
Spacing	18–24″ / 45–60 cm between plants; rows 24–36″ / 60–90 cm (stake if fruit-laden)
Germination	~7–14 days at ~75–90°F / 24–32°C (heat mat helps)
Soil	Fertile, well-drained; moderate feeding; mulch to retain warmth & moisture
Harvest	Green ~70–80 days from transplant; red ~85–95 days (sweeter, slightly hotter). Light “corking” on skins is normal and prized by many cooks.

Ways to Use

Slice into quick pickles for pizzas, sandwiches, and bowls.
Chop fresh into pico de gallo and guacamole.
Top nachos, tacos, burgers, and breakfast eggs.

Pro tip: Keep plants evenly watered and mulched for thick walls and fewer splits. Pick early and often to encourage new blooms; leave some to full red for sweeter heat and seed-saving.
