30,000-45,000 SHU. A beautiful ornamental pepper variety! This pepper is still edible, but are quite spicy. Ornamental peppers get their name for their showey colors. The firecracker pepper is a showstopper! Plants produce bushes that are filled with clusters of purple, red, and yellow pimento shaped peppers that point up to the sky!
As always, I’m sure these MIGardener seeds will germinate nicely. Bought them, and a few others, in anticipation for next season!
I planted the seeds a little over two months ago. Some did germinate, but growth was initially slow and limited to the sprouting stage. The seedlings are now gradually developing, with the tallest reaching about 2 inches in height. I reached out to the seller about the pepper seeds about a month after planting but haven’t received a response. I’m continuing to care for the plants and remain hopeful that they’ll thrive with time and attention.
I grew these last year, cannot wait to expand my beds with these beauties!
I grew this pepper plant in a 20 gallon pot and it did very well. It produced dozens of small peppers that were spicy—hotter than your standard jalapeno. I put about 3 of these in my salsa to spice it up along with 5-7 whole jalapeños (I roast them which takes out a portion of the yea). This little plant produced so many peppers that I froze a gallon bag of them to use in recipes throughout the year.
I planted approx 2 wks ago and still no sprouts. Possibly my soil.
Germanated quickly on a heat mat. Off the mat and growing ready to transplant early/mid april. Excited for leeks this autumn
Last year I bought seeds from my local store and I didnt get anything to germinate. This year I purchased all my seeds from MIGardener and I've had to give seedlings away cause nearly all the seeds sprouted!!!
Great germination! I'm excited to see how the onions turn out
My only complaint is that I was not prepared for how well and fast all of the seeds would grow soI had to pot up earlier than expected! I am very happy with all of the seeds I have purchased from here!
I think I got near perfect germination on these. Cauliflower has always been challenging for me to time it out and know when to harvest. I've been learning that crops that have purple or reds in them (looking at my red lettuce varieties and purple sprouting broccoli) seem to bolt less quickly than their green counterparts in heat.
