Listen "How to Know When to Harvest Jalapeño Peppers"
Episode Synopsis
Think jalapeños are just spicy little peppers? There's way more to them than that, especially when it comes to knowing exactly when to harvest for the flavor, heat, and crunch you want. In this video, I'll walk you through every stage of a jalapeño's growth, from its first crisp green fruit to its deep red, smoky-ready finish. You'll learn how to start peppers (and why most gardeners should skip starting from seed), the companions that make them thrive, and the telltale signs of ripeness for different uses, whether you're pickling, topping your favorite soup, or making your own chipotle peppers. Plus, I'll share my pro tips for keeping your plants producing all season long, and what to do when storms or frost are on the horizon. By the end, you'll know exactly when and how to harvest jalapeños so you get the best yield and flavor, no guesswork required.
