Serrano Del Sol (65 Days)

65 DAYS
Capsicum annuum

A classic serrano with bright heat and exceptional flavour! Serrano Del Sol produces smooth, cylindrical peppers that are 4 in. long, thick-walled, and a deep, glossy green. Traditionally used green, serranos offer a more refined, vibrant flavour than jalapeos and can be used the same way, perfect for nachos, salsa, chili, stir-fries, and fresh toppings.

Size: Plants reach about 24 in. tall, delivering a steady harvest of spicy, flavour-packed fruit all season long.

Yield: Prolific producers that provide continuous harvests throughout the growing season.

Taste: Bright and vibrant flavour with significant heat, ranging from 10,000 to 23,000 Scoville units.

How to use: Ideal for fresh salsas, spicy sauces, or any dish requiring a touch of heat.

Planting tips: Start seed indoors 6 to 8 weeks before transplanting. Cover seeds with 1/4 in. of soil and maintain moisture without overwatering. Germination requires a soil temperature of 22C, typically sprouting in 10 to 14 days. Once seedlings reach 5 in., transplant into larger pots.

Harvest tips: Pick peppers while still green for the best flavour and heat.
