While it's too early to tell how much these seeds will produce, I did have 21 seeds that germinated and the plants are looking healthy. I'll probably transplant them into larger pots this weekend and give them a chance to grow big and strong before planting them in my garden. Looking forward to a new pepper we haven't tried before.
I purchased 4 vibrant colors last year and planted them in a quadrant design. They were beautiful. Full blooms, tall sturdy stalks. I had about 80% sprout. Butterflies loved them. I wish I had photographed them, I certainly plan to this summer. Easy to grow, tossed into an old raised bed square. I do water weekly if needed.
Great seeds! I read that everglades tomatoes can take a long time to germinate, but I used some quality organic compost, and these seeds sprouted in only 5 days! I can't wait to see how many tomatoes we get from these!
Germinated Quick, Grew Fast, Already Getting Fruit
I think I jumped the gun on these lil guys. Started them at Christmas, two per pod in a six cylinder Aerogarden thinking they'd grow slower. I underestimated them, after pulling the runts out of each pod (11 out of 12 took) they pushed up to maturity and started popping fruit already in the first week of February! I am not complaining. I keep them well pruned and they seem quite happy bundled on my shelf. Come final thaw they'll join the maters outside and be bumping well into fall, fingers crossed and here's hoping I get a couple sample peppers in the meantime.
