🌱 Variety

Our seeds produce the Sriracha Jalapeño, a jalapeño variety prized for its uniform size, thick flesh, and reliable production. These peppers are specifically bred for creating traditional sriracha sauce, offering the perfect balance of moderate heat and bright, tangy flavor.


🔬 Species

Sriracha Jalapeño peppers belong to Capsicum annuum, a diverse species that includes popular peppers like cayenne, bell peppers, and Anaheim chilies. Jalapeños are one of the most cultivated chilies globally, known for their approachable heat and versatile culinary uses.


🌍 Origin

The jalapeño originated in Mexico, where it has been grown for centuries, named after Xalapa (Jalapa) in Veracruz. Its popularity spread globally, especially after it became the foundation for sriracha sauce—a blend of jalapeños, vinegar, garlic, sugar, and salt. The iconic sriracha most people know today was popularized by David Tran’s Huy Fong Foods in California during the 1980s, but the sauce itself has roots in traditional Thai and Vietnamese cooking.

🧬 Hybridizer (if applicable)

The Sriracha Jalapeño isn’t a modern hybrid in the sense of being a new cross, but it has been selectively bred by seed companies for consistent size, productivity, and thick walls—traits that make it ideal for sauce production and commercial growing.


🎯 Description

Sriracha Jalapeños are thick-walled, glossy green peppers that ripen to a deep red. Pods average 7–10 centimeters (3–4 inches) long and have a plump, cylindrical shape with a blunt tip. The flavor is bright, vegetal, and slightly sweet with a mild to moderate heat. When fully ripened to red, they develop a rich, fruity complexity ideal for sauces, pickling, or fresh use.


🌿 Plant Size

Mature plants typically reach 60–90 cm (2–3 feet) in height with a sturdy, upright habit. They develop a bushy structure that supports heavy yields of uniform peppers throughout the season. Sriracha Jalapeños thrive in garden beds and large pots, making them perfect for home gardeners with limited space.


🌡️ Pungency

With a heat range of 2,500–8,000 SHU, Sriracha Jalapeños fall into the Medium category. They offer a pleasant, moderate kick that makes them versatile for fresh dishes and sauces without overwhelming the palate. For more about jalapeño heat and Scoville ratings, visit Chili Pepper Madness.


🌱 Grow Difficulty

Sriracha Jalapeños are easy to moderate to grow, making them suitable for beginners and experienced gardeners alike. They prefer warm temperatures, full sun, and well-draining, fertile soil. Regular watering, balanced fertilizer, and staking (if needed) will help maximize yields. These plants are generally resistant to common pepper diseases when given good airflow and not overwatered.


⏳ Days to Germination

Seeds typically germinate within 7–14 days in warm soil kept between 24–28°C (75–82°F). Using a seedling heat mat or warm windowsill can help maintain consistent temperatures for optimal sprouting.


🌾 Days to Harvest After Transplant

Expect to harvest green jalapeños 65–75 days after transplanting seedlings into their final growing spot. For fully ripened red jalapeños, harvest can extend to 80–90 days, allowing peppers to develop maximum sweetness and flavor complexity.


🍽️ Culinary Uses

Sriracha Jalapeños are famous for their role in homemade sriracha sauce. Here’s how you can use them in your kitchen:

  • Homemade Sriracha: Blend red jalapeños with garlic, vinegar, sugar, and salt, then ferment or cook down for classic or custom hot sauce.
  • Fresh Salsas: Dice green or red jalapeños into pico de gallo, guacamole, or fruit salsas for a fresh kick.
  • Pickling: Make classic pickled jalapeño rings for nachos, sandwiches, or pizza toppings.
  • Stuffed Jalapeños: Slice lengthwise and stuff with cheese, meat, or veggies before baking or grilling for jalapeño poppers.
  • Cooking & Roasting: Grill or roast whole peppers for smoky, sweet-spicy flavor in tacos, burgers, or salads.
