A popular anaheim variety because of its very mild heat and large size. This is thick meaty pepper and a great first choice to grow for New Mexico pod-type green chile flavor and mild heat. The Sonora pepper can be eaten raw, cooked, or roasted and peeled, and is great when stuffed with meat and cheese for chile rellenos.
The large anaheim-style fruits grow up to 10" long with thick flesh. It produces excellent yields of green peppers that will ripen to red if left on the plant. The plants grow up to 30” tall and are TMV resistant.
Capsicumannuum(75 days)
Heat Level: Mild Scoville 600
~ Packet contains 30 seeds
In early spring, start seeds indoors 8 weeks prior to warm nightly temperatures. Place the seeds in sterile media and cover 1/4” deep. Provide 85°F bottom heat, and bright light, and keep moist at all times. Seeds will germinate in 7-14 days. Transplant seedlings into pots and grow until there are 6 true leaves on the plant. Plant them directly into rich soil, 30” apart, or into large 5-gallon containers. Harvest chiles when they are green. If left on the plant for a couple more weeks, the chiles will turn red at full maturity.
SO HAPPY TO FIND A GREEN CHILE THAT AGREES WITH MY STOMACH. GREAT FLAVOR WITHOUT TOO MUCH HEAT. PRODUCTIVE PLANTS.

My Mom's Favorite
I've always like my chile hot and spicy, but my Mom likes a more mild chile so I grow these for her when I make green chile to bring over. Still very tasty, with subtle heat. Don't worry, I still use my hot sauce to drizzle over it to spice it up a notch. 🌶😆
