Growing San Joaquin Hybrid Jalapeño Pepper

‘San Joaquin’ is an award-winning hybrid jalapeño and 2023 All-America Selections Winner prized for its large fruits, high yields, and dependable garden performance. Thick-walled, firm peppers mature from glossy dark green to red and deliver mild jalapeño heat.

Start ‘San Joaquin’ indoors for transplanting. Plant seeds about ¼ inch deep, space plants 18 to 24 inches apart, and grow in full sun. Compact plants are well suited to containers and smaller gardens.

Ready to harvest in about 60 days, pick peppers green or allow them to ripen fully red while continuing to harvest regularly for extended production.

Mildly spicy, thick walled, and productive, ‘San Joaquin’ is excellent for salsa, pickling, stuffing, roasting, canning, fresh eating, and everyday cooking.

    Very poor germimation

    I am very disappointed in the germination rate of these peppers. All my other peppers germinated well in the same conditions and are thriving, ready to be transplanted into the garden this weekend. I tried contacting customer service, but have had no response. Bummer!

    Most prolific Jalapeño I've tried

    Grows great in containers, needs little care and set huge amounts of peppers. Did well in zone 8 .

    My fave!

    I can’t say enough good about these. They have far outpaced all the other jalapeno plants in my zone 6b garden, on a sturdy, healthy plant. Great flavor. I will always plant these from now on. A new favorite.

    So productive and delicious

    I had these in Minnesota last summer. Nearly every morning with eggs, and they were great stuffed or as a pizza topper. Very productive and early fruiting, longer and heavier than a regular jalepeno. I will order these for myself this year. They should do well in Montana, and hopefully the deer will leave the plants alone.
