It is looking like the batch of Red Jamaican Mushroom Peppers I bought was no good. The first group didn't germinate in over two weeks, and the remaining 8 seeds aren't showing any signs after over a week. I believe I will replace them with the Sweet Jalapeno. I bought a pack of 10 seeds from Jim Duffy about two months ago. These look really interesting.
Sweet Jalapeno-(Capsicum annuum)-The Sweet Jalapeno is not your ordinary no heat regular Jalapeno. There are a few varieties bred that are no heat Jalapenos but they just have ordinary Jalapeno flavor. The Sweet Jalapeno does have a small or mild amount of heat. But also has a Jalapeno flavor with sweetness mixed in!! To get the most flavor from these it is suggested to harvest when red. The Sweet Jalapeno peppers are about 2 inches long and a half inch wide. They are great for fresh salsas, Pickling, stuffing, roasting and salads. Finally a flavorful Jalapeno the lightweights can enjoy, because not everyone is a fire eater!! The Sweet Jalapeno chile plants grow to 2 feet tall and are very heavy bearing. SKU: ch320

These sound very intriguing. I can't wait to hear the progress.

Those sound really good to me. I usually find the no heat jalapenos not very good tasting.

I did a search using the sku and it did not show up but found it using the name itself. Thanks! I need to spend more time to look at this site.

I really like them. Every time I order they send me additional seeds to try, for free.
