Early Jalapeño

The name says it all: Early Jalapeño is a very early producing Capsicum annuum that is well suited for cultivation in regions with a short growing season. The small plants provide high yields of the characteristic “cracked” pods. Depending on the growing conditions, they’re low to medium hot and can therefore be processed in many ways. In many places they’re used in their unripe, green state before they fully develop their heat. If you leave them on the plant, they become red and hotter.
