Hatch Green Hot Chile Seeds - 30 Seeds DoubleCross - New Mexico Flavor and Thick Flesh

I've never had an issue with germination and having Hatch green chili in my backyard is definitely worth it. I've planed them before, love the taste quality and will buy them again to keep my backyard garden rolling with green chilis.

Great peppers. Germinated well. A little on the hot side though for me.

they grew but not as hot as I would have liked

50%+ germinated which is better than I expected.

If I could leave less than one star, I would. They didn’t even sprout. Tried it 2 different times and nothing. Just a waste of money.

It seems sprouted very quickly. Within a couple of days. The seedlings so far seem to be very healthy and strong. However i only got about 65% of them to germinate

Couldn't get them to grow

I started my green chiles from seed on 4/3 indoors using a grow light and a heat mat under the seed starting tray. I watered from the bottom and kept them covered with a plastic lid for humidity until they sprouted, and then I stopped the heat mat and lid. Most of the seeds sprouted which is great!! After some hardening off, I moved them outdoors on 5/15 (zone 8a) and transplanted them into 5 gallon grow bags in a full sun location. I was able to harvest a few by 8/3 and most in a few days ~8/20 (they turn a darker green when ready, so be patient because it takes several weeks from when you first notice the baby pepper). They've have good heat to them and taste really good roasted! Each plant was a little smaller than expected, and has only made a few peppers each. I was really hoping for more peppers. I'm not sure if this is because they are right next to my flower patch and the pollinators are more excited about my zinnia than the pepper flowers... but I will for sure be using seeds from sandia seed company again next year. May try hand pollinating with a q-tip next year because they did have plenty of flowers, just not many were fertilized and eventually just fell off.
