This was my first time growing jalapenos. I typically gravitate toward growing pepper varieties that are unique, with interesting colors or flavor profiles that I haven't tried before. The only reason I bought these seeds was because they were the Epic Gardening brand seeds which are intended to be easy to grow. I thought - Why not? The plant started producing earlier than many of the other peppers I'm growing and is also prolific! The plant is healthy and giving me a steady production of large peppers. This one is a winner! I'm going to make a spicy soup today with the massive amount of squash I have in the garden 😁
