Hatch Green Medium - Big Jim Chile Seeds - Nice Heat & Great Flavor

We live in North Central Idaho in the mountains. Our seeds all terminated and I had a very good crop of green chile considering where we live. They are thick meated and have great flavor and just the right heat.

I love these huge pods, they are easy to roast, easy to spot on the plants, easy to peel, and DELICIOUS! Totally worth it. I only wish I had a full field of these growing. :) Seeds germinated quickly, plants grew nicely. Just picked my first pods yesterday (July 31st) which is awesome!

Received my 3 packs of seeds and they are great. Unfortunately, I had to pay an exorbitant shipping cost(9.95) for an order that 1 year ago would have been $4 shipping. Will not be buying from Sandia in the future as Baker Creek Seeds a.k.a. Rare Seeds has free shipping if you buy 1 pack or 20 packs. Lower your shipping cost if you want my business back.

These are so tasty and so productive. And they don't seem to mind our hot, dry heat here in Denver!

Amazing flavor... you can't beat this chile for the perfect amount of spice and loads of smokey-buttery flavor.

This was one of the earliest chiles to harvest for me this season – nice big pods, delicious when roasted. I'm going to grow these every season on!

I've always heard that New Mexico Hatch chiles can't grow anywhere but New Mexico! But don't believe that - I *still* have so many Hatch chiles on my plants and it's the end of the season in our Western NC mountains! I've canned so many, and canned so much Salsa Verde, I *HAD* to start just giving away the peppers! (Hint: I inter-planted all my pepper beds with a number of varieties of basil, which I let flower after I harvested as much as I could use. The basil flowers attracted more pollinators that also visited the peppers. Good pepper plants with lots of flowers... good attraction to bees... lots of peppers!)

Hatch Green Chili from Sandia Seed is the next best thing to living in New Mexico!
They do grow in Oklahoma!

This was my first time growing these and I will definitely be growing them from now on. Great germination and very sturdy plants that have withstood some really high winds. Huge long peppers that are excellent green or red, very easy to peel skin.

Easy to grow, nice large pods with thick flesh. I roast them on my grill, peel, and use them for everything from green chile to pizza toppings. If only I had a larger garden, I'd grow tons more. You can never have enough green chile. I used to live in New Mexico but am now up in Minnesota, so being able to grow and enjoy these delicious chile is a treat. I turned my gardening neighbors and friends onto them, too.

I'm a huge fan of sandiaseed.com - a small woman-owned seed company, they're based currently in Colorado, but originated in New Mexico. They have over a hundred different kinds of peppers, and their seeds all grow true and have good germination. We grow their Hatch chile varieties every year including this Big Jim, one of our top favorites! Also love growing their habaneros & jalapenos (they have several different varieties of each!) plus some of their sweet peppers like Shishitos and Fushimis. They have super fast shipping, and have a seed replacement policy and will replace seeds if they fail (though I've never had a problem in the many years of growing about 15 different varieties each year from them for over 8 years.) Two thumbs way up from this chilehead. :)

Great seeds, good germination, plants grow quickly and produce lots of pods for roasting. Great flavor and just the right amount of spice. We grow these every year in our garden in Utah.

Very productive plants even up here in New England!

These grow large. We roast them and peel them and make green chile from them. My husband adores them.
Made Chili Mac for my Step son and he ate it all in one sitting.
I plant 10 plants every year.

These germinated and grew beautifully, was happy to use them to create the delicious green chile of my home but in a new country!

Excellent germination, heat level and flavor. After living where Hatch chilis were a part of our every day, I’m glad to grow them in Idaho!

These are my favorite so far. I've planted a few other varieties, but this one is most flavorful to me.

I love these! The germination rate has always been close to 100%, the plants are hardy and produce an abundance of very tasty green chiles. The heat is just right but of course can fluxuate with growing conditions.

I’ve grown this variety for a few years now and they consistently produce very well here in NC. I buy fresh seeds each year and have had a great sprout rate.

We roasted most and froze for the winter,What a Treat!!

These are our favorite chiles to grow, always productive, fast growing. Great for our short seasons here in Colorado.

I love the seeds!

Plants look healthy so far getting ready to plant in my garden.

Great quality, great service! Will definitely order from here again in the future

My first seeds have sprouted this weekend. We have enjoyed family.travel to New Mexico and loved the breakfast burritos and other fine dishes with the hatch chiles
hope we have good luck growing the seeds this season. Regards to all Otis.

I grew up in New Mexico and I moved away in my late teens. Being able to have real, homegrown Hatch chilies again is like going home again. Thank you!

I purchased three varieties big Jim, Joe e Parker and double cross. I planted three seeds of each two weeks ago. So far I have two seedlings of each. Germination was faster than I expected. I’m pleased

We started the tomato and chile seeds we purchased in our aerogarden. High quality seeds that grew very quickly. Plants are very healthy. We would highly recommend seeds from this company.

I Grow the Big Jim’s in my garden in New York State by the Catskills. Just made a green chili stew from last years batch. Awesome! Nice to have a little bit of New Mexico here at home. Thanks much to Sandia Seed Company!

I planted my seeds (indoors) 10 days ago and already have several sprouts! So excited for the possibility of good green chiles again!!
