Vegetable Gardening

Are pepper seeds routinely mixed up? I wanted to grow jalapeno only but ended up with 4 different species.


Yellow circle: probably Red Dragon, kind of mild, red when ripe, about a size of my pinky

Blue circle : probably white pepper, the peppers are large and sweet, smell a bit grassy and go red if left on counter

Red circle: jalapeno

Magenta circle: yellow habanero without a doubt (sweet fruity melon like smell)

Source of seeds: local seed maker in Slovakia. I have couple more plants on balcony and I gave some away, and they are all varied like this.

    Peppergate still exists! A couple years back, some companies got their seed stocks all messed up.

    So you’d order jalapeno, and get serrano or something.

    If he’s local why don’t you go ask them what happened? They might enjoy the feedback, especially if they’re messing up customer orders.

    I planted 6 bell pepper plants, of the 4 that made it only 1 is a bell pepper. 2 never flowered and the other one was an Italian yellow cooking pepper

    I too have different peppers from the same jalapeno pack

    This rarely happens when you buy from reputable sellers.
