Machine: Farm 24XL
Vendor: Refining Fire Chiles
Name: (See Below)
Seeds: 2 per pod
Sponge: Park
Nutes: None to start
White Lakes-(Capsicum annuum)-This is an early producing sweet pepper variety from Russia. It produces small pointy end peppers that grow pointing up with pointy ends. They start out creamy white in color then transition into an orange blush and finally red. For more sweetness harvest when orange or red. The fruits get almost 3 inches in diameter near the stem and about 3 inches long. They are very productive so it is a good idea to stake them. The flavor is very sweet and juicy. Ideal for salads, stuffing or roasting. The White Lakes chile plants grow just over 2 feet tall.
Farmers Market Jalapeno-(Capsicum annuum)-The farmers Market Jalapeno is also called the Potato Jalapeno. It looks like it has a potato skin texture. A closer look it appears that someone wrapped it up in white thread like a mummy! This appearance is found in other peppers and is called corking. It does not have a negative impact on the flavor. The farmers Market Jalapeno is very sweet with a mild heat. It is an large size Jalapeno. Some peppers will get huge!! Also one of the tastiest Jalapenos I have ever had! It is great for stuffing, sauces or salsa! The Farmers Market Jalapeno Chile plants grow up to 3 feet tall.
Jalmundo-(Capsicum annuum)-To start with the history Jalapenos were named after the Mexican city of Xalapa where they are still grown. The NuMex Jalmundo was created over many years by first crossing a Keystone Giant Bell with an Early Jalapeno by the Chile Pepper Institute at New Mexico State University. Finally seeds were released 2010-2011. The results of this breeding project was a large jumbo sized Jalapeno that had a good heat level of 17,000 SHU and was more productive and disease resistant. It is noted that lack of water in hotter summers will produce smaller than usual peppers. The NuMex Jalmundo averages about 3.5 inches long and 1.5 inches wide. They have more a crunchy wall and some sweetness like a bell. But still have that Jalapeno flavor. These are ideal for making Jalapeno poppers and fresh salsa. The NuMex Jalmundo chile plants average 30 inches tall.
