THANK YOU SANDIA!

For always efficiently delivering consistant quality seeds, especially maintaining our precious heirlooms. Currently waiting for my new peppers to peek through the soil and praying for a good season this year.

Amazing!

I grew these last year from 2022 seed. 100% germination, and amazing production right until the frost did them in. I made so many stuffed poblanos, (they freeze well) and also soup. Ended up with bags full to give to family and friends. Thanks to Sandia for the generous amount of seed in the packet, I've planted more again, and the seeds are still germinating perfectly! I had planted one poblano in a 5-gallon pot as a trial. It produced many poblanos and although they got a lot of sun, they were considerably smaller than the ones in the garden.

They are coming up like crazy! I’m anxious to try them!

Loved them

Grew them for the first time in 2023. I plan on getting more for 2024. I especially liked stuffing them.

Really nice sized peppers

Grew these for the first time this year. Really gives good sized poblanos ideal for Chile rellenos.

Beautiful big chiles

Loved growing these! So many big poblanos and great flavor!

Not ideal for containers or balconies

I would recommend these if you're able to give it the space and light it needs, but I wouldn't recommend growing these in a container or with less that full sun all day long. My plant was quite large but my peppers ended up pretty small (about clementine sized), though I acknowledge that's most likely due to the conditions I gave it. My peppers were otherwise very good!

Nice and large!

These are great poblanos for roasting and stuffing to make into chile rellanos. Nice and large with thick flesh, so they are easy to roast and peel and stuff. Will grow again! Good germination, too, nearly every seed sprouted with our seedling mat heat, I think the heat helps a lot with peppers.
