Growing Unicron Hybrid Pepper
Due to high demand, this item is currently unavailable. We expect new inventory in June.
In the meantime, consider San Joaquin Hybrid or Jalafuego Hybrid. Both are reliable alternatives with similar maturity, yield, and performance.
Unicron Jalapeño Pepper sets a new standard for size, quality, and garden performance. These glossy, thick-walled peppers grow up to an impressive 5 inches long—nearly double the size of a typical jalapeño—while still delivering the classic flavor and moderate heat growers love. With a Scoville range of 4,000–5,000 units, Unicron offers a familiar kick without overwhelming spice.
Smooth, dark green fruits ripen to vibrant red and resist cracking, checking, and sunscald. Medium-tall plants provide strong leaf cover and excellent disease resistance, resulting in abundant yields across a wide range of climates.
Perfect for stuffing, grilling, roasting, or pickling, Unicron brings unbeatable size, versatility, and dependable production from garden to kitchen.

None about the Pepper Seeds germinated, but I’ve gotten snack cucumbers, which were fabulous and the turnips and the collards were fabulous, but those peppers not one germinated in my little germination box

This thing is crazy! I’ve never seen a jalapeño this big!
T
100% germination rate, first ones to turn red and excellent taste!
B
The Ubicron was the last jalapeño that I planted and the first to produce. And they are huge! The heat level is perfect. Not too hot but spicier than most jalapeños that you buy in the supermarket. This one will definitely be in my garden every year!
B
These have been growing well! My dad tried the first one and there was no heat, however there are so many factors that could be affecting that. Impressive size!
