Shishito Pepper Seeds

A mildly hot pepper, BUT it’s said that 1 out of every 10 peppers will be ‘spicy-hot’, which is why snacking on them can be an adventure! The thin walled 3-4” peppers are wrinkly with a folded end and mature from shiny pale green to red, but most often harvested in the green stage. The 24” plants are sturdy and produce continuously until frost. Suitable for containers. 60 days from transplant. 50-200 SHU SHU is measure of Scoville Heat Units. (Capsicum annuum) 4,000 seeds/oz.; 21-26 days, 72°F. Start early indoors and transplant well after last frost. Grow seedlings at 62°F night temperature and 70°F day temperature. Lower temperatures permanently reduce plant productivity.
