Growing Your Big Jim Chiles

Start seeds indoors 8 weeks before the last frost. Plant ¼" deep in sterile soil with 85°F bottom heat. Germination takes 7–21 days. Transplant seedlings after 6 true leaves appear, spacing them 30" apart in rich soil or 5-gallon containers. Plants reach 36" tall and thrive in full sun.

Pro Tip: For extra-large pods, maintain consistent moisture and fertilize monthly.
