New! Johnny’s improved strain.

Growers in the Pacific Northwest and Northern Tier of the U.S. rely on Hungarian Hot Wax because it matures very early in cool, wet weather. However, many commercial strains have been poorly maintained; plants grown from these lots are often floppy, and the fruits vary in size, shape, and heat level. In 2015, our breeding team began improving this variety through 3 cycles of selective plant breeding. We are now proud to release our newly selected strain, which features an upright plant and uniform fruits. The greatly improved plant architecture offers better fruit protection and faster/easier harvests with minimal fruit damage! Smooth, tapered, and moderately spicy fruits avg. 5 1/2″ x 1 1/2″ and mature from pale yellow to orange red, and finally, to a vibrant red. Excellent for frying, roasting, or pickling. USDA Certified Organic.

Around 25 Seeds / Pack

Use 1 seeds per hole for Tower Farms.

Fruiting Crops require a longer time to mature (2 – 4 months based on variety), but they give an abundance of fruits for a long time once they mature. It is highly recommended not to grow more than 1 type of fruiting crop per tower.

Plant only a maximum of 2-4 plants of Pepper per Tower, and only 2 plants per Tower Pot.

While peppers usually do not require manual pollination, once the flowers start coming out, it is recommended you gently shake your pepper plants every couple of days to help distrbute the pollinators.
