Grow Authentic Mexican Flavor with Guajillo Chile Seeds

Bring the bold, sweet heat of Mexico to your garden with our premium Guajillo Chile Seeds. A cornerstone of traditional Mexican cuisine, the Guajillo pepper is celebrated as part of the "Holy Trinity of Chiles" alongside Ancho and Pasilla varieties. These versatile peppers are essential for crafting rich mole sauces and adding depth to salsas, stews, and marinades.

Why Choose Our Guajillo Chile Seeds?

Each packet contains 10 high-quality, GMO-free seeds that yield prolific plants thriving in dry climates. The peppers mature into stunning 4-6" pods with thin flesh and a glossy reddish-brown hue. Their unique flavor profile balances sweet fruitiness with a medium heat level (3,000–5,000 Scoville units) - perfect for those who enjoy warmth without overwhelming spice.

Easy-to-Grow & Productive Plants

These Capsicum annuum plants (75-day maturity) are low-maintenance powerhouses. For best results, start seeds indoors 8 weeks before warm nights. Soak seeds overnight, plant ¼" deep in seedling mix, and maintain 85°F soil with bright light. Germination typically occurs in 14–21 days. Transplant seedlings after 6 true leaves develop, spacing them 30" apart in rich soil or 5-gallon containers.

Harvest & Culinary Rewards

Pick peppers when they turn vibrant red for peak flavor. Dry them to create authentic Guajillo powder or rehydrate for sauces. Their thin walls make them ideal for quick drying while preserving their complex taste.
