Grow Your Own Fiery Flavor with Tabasco Pepper Seeds

Unlock the bold, smoky taste of authentic Tabasco sauce right in your backyard with these Tabasco Pepper Seeds. Perfect for home gardeners and hot sauce enthusiasts, these heirloom seeds produce vibrant peppers packed with intense heat (30,000-50,000 Scoville units) and the signature flavor that makes Tabasco sauce legendary.

Why Choose Our Tabasco Pepper Seeds?

These easy-to-grow seeds yield prolific plants (2'-4’ tall) adorned with slender 1.5" upright pods that transition from yellow-green to glossy red. Ideal for containers or garden beds, they add ornamental appeal while delivering a very hot, smoky kick perfect for sauces, salsas, and pickling.

Key Features:

  • Heirloom & Open-Pollinated: Reliable, non-GMO seeds that produce true-to-type peppers (Capsicum frutescens).
  • Fast-Growing: Ready to harvest in just 81 days.
  • Versatile: Thrives in gardens or 5-gallon containers.
  • Packet Includes: 10 premium seeds for a bountiful crop.

Simple Growing Tips:

Start seeds indoors 8 weeks before warm weather. Plant 1/4" deep in sterile soil with 85°F bottom heat. Keep moist and provide bright light—germination takes 7-21 days. Transplant seedlings with 6 true leaves, spacing 30" apart. Harvest when peppers are plump and radiant red.

Pro Tip: Ferment your harvest with vinegar and salt for homemade Tabasco-style sauce. Try our Easy Fermented Hot Sauce Recipe!
