Guajillo Chile Seeds

Fruity with a sweet heat and smoky flavor. I like to crush them to add to red chili stew.

These germinated in two days. I started them in midsummer and they fruited by late fall in my zone 10b garden and are overwintering just fine. I’ll have more to harvest by late spring. I made my red sauce for pozole for Christmas with my harvest!

Bought seeds last year(2024). Started early indoors with heat mat. Didn't have high expectations as I live in northern Michigan. I had to wait til June to out outside, but once established they took off. I had 4 plants and received 50-60 peppers. It wasn't the best summer for hot weather plants, but the seedlings were strong and resilient. They kept right on producing until frost. I waited until they turned color to pick the first batch. Once I picked, the plant went crazy, producing tons of peppers. Some I was able to harvest and some didn't get the chance to mature. I will definitely be planting again!

In zone 7a and they were producing until late October. I needed to buy a dehydrator because I had so many! Will definitely grow again.

Nice shape and color as well as being very prolific and reliable with excellent germination even in the far north! Won first place at the county fair.

I ordered the seeds in 2022, for planting in 2023. Sandia was so generous with the amount of seeds I received in the packet, twice the amount I was expecting. The germination was 100%, and wow! The amount of peppers I got from 10 plants was incredible, especially for our northern climate! I had lots to give away. Mostly I dehydrated them when they ripened and turned them into pepper flakes, (just the aroma of them makes my day!) but I also stored some dried peppers in vacuum sealed jars. Those plants kept on producing heavily until the frost finally killed them. I still have many seeds left, and have planted again this year. Still germinating perfectly! I can't recommend them highly enough!

Thanks for selling these seeds so I can grow them in my garden in Colorado. They grow very well here, and dry nicely for storing for winter use.

We love growing these to dry and grind into pepper flakes and powder which is perfect for adding to all sorts of dishes to kick up the flavor and add a little bit of heat. We grow these every year, thank you for the exceptional seeds with great germination.

Ours grew to over 6 ft tall! Lots of fruit. These are great roasted and used for salsa.

The peppers are good and abundant. The plants are large and lanky and (in my experience) require a lot of support. Probably not ideal for containers or smaller spaces like balconies/small porches. I would grow these again but not until I have a proper garden.
