BULK Hatch Green Chile - X Hot - Barker's Hot - 1 oz. Seeds
Hatch Green Chile X Hot • Barker's Hot • 1 oz of Seeds
An extra-hot New Mexico green chile with great flavor! They grow to 5" - 7" in length, and can be used just as you would use any Hatch green chile, but with an extra punch. This variety grows well in very hot, dry climates. A very dependable early producer. Capsicum annuum (75 days)
Heat Level: X Hot Scoville 9000 - 10,000
~ Packet contains 1 oz. (approx 3,500 seeds) (Germ. 82% 7/2023)
In early spring, start seeds indoors 8 weeks prior to warm nightly temperatures. Place the seeds in sterile media and cover 1/4” deep. Provide 85°F bottom heat, bright light and keep moist at all times. Seeds will germinate in 7 - 21 days. Transplant seedlings into pots and grow until there are 6 true leaves on the plant. Plant them directly into rich soil, 30” apart or into large 5 gallon containers. Harvest chiles when they are green. If left on the plant a couple more weeks, the chiles will turn red at full maturity.
*Technically, to call any of these chiles "Hatch Chiles," they must be grown in the Hatch region of New Mexico. But we still think they taste great when grown all over the world, plus fresh homegrown chile is always extra-delicious and it's often hard to get New Mexican chile around the world! So this is way you can grow a little bit of New Mexico in your garden, no matter where you live.
All of our seeds are GMO-free.

These peppers are extremely good if you like the heat. We mix them with some milder chiles and then can them. They add wonderful flavor with a kick.
We're glad you offer these bulk hot Hatch chile seeds! We were amazed that we had nearly 100% germination, we separated and replanted the extra seedlings so we had more plants than originally planned (always a good thing, we made room and shared with other growers). When germinating the seeds, we kept them warm on heating mats which we find is the best way for quick and successful germination. We planted a large plot with the peppers and had a huge harvest, with probably a few dozen peppers per plant. We'll be growing these every year.
