Description

Anaheim Pepper is a mild to medium heat chili pepper with large plants and abundant production. Plants can get quite tall and wide as they grow throughout the warmer months. As a result, they will need a solid trellis to support the large plants and heavy-yields of peppers. Fruits average 5-8" long and have meaty, thick walls. Fruits will be a light-green color initially, and will mature to a deep, rich red. Anaheim Pepper is a great variety for frying, roasting or making stuffed peppers for the grill. They also dry well and can be used in sauces or spices once dehydrated.

 

Growing Information

Peppers are in the nightshade family along with tomatoes and eggplant. Plants in the nightshade family are susceptible to blossom end rot, which is a result of a calcium deficiency. To prevent or alleviate this problem, apply pelleted gypsum at the base of the plant at bloom set. Peppers do best when transplanted, as the germination time can be longer than most vegetable seed. Peppers grow very well in our heavy-duty seed starting trays. Plants should be started 4-6 weeks before the intended outdoor planting date. If conditions outside are favorable, transplants may be planted directly from our 162 cell trays. If conditions are still too cold for planting peppers, transplants may be "stepped-up" to 4" pots to allow more room to grow. Peppers can produce heavy fruits and will require some form of support to keep the plant upright. We recommend using the Florida Weave trellising technique that involves using stakes and twine along the row. This ensures that plants and fruits stay off the ground, reducing the possibility of disease and keeping fruits clean.

Wow! Having moved from Arizona to Wisconsin I was missing good (cheap) green chilis. These seeds worked so well. I started them inside and moved them out to pots in (mostly) full sun. It seemed to take awhile but by early September I harvested 2/3rds of my peppers, which reached perfect size and flavor. No insect or other problems. So far I've roasted and frozen about 1 1/2 lbs. Green chili stew here we come!
