UNIQUE CREEK HOMESTEAD SEEDS: All of our seeds are grown right here on our Unique Creek Homestead and not sourced from elsewhere. All seeds are collected each growing season and are 1-year old or less, stored in air-tight Mason jars. Seeds are harvested and labeled for storage each season, one plant/seed type at a time so seeds do not get mixed by accident during the process! The seeds we use at the start of each growing season come from the exact same seeds we sell.
ABOUT THESE SEEDS: 'NuMex Heritage 6-4' has significantly greater yield, up to 32% higher, than the original 'New Mexico 6-4'. The plants have single, strong main stems and are uniformly branching, providing foliage cover for sunscald pro- tection and support for an excellent fruit set.
Big Jim pods can grow between 8 and 14 inches in length and, while they are a medium hot pepper, you will find a great deal of variation in heat from one to the next. So great is the range that when measured on the scoville scale, a given pod can be anywhere from 500-3,500 SHU.
Sow seeds in flats or pots 8 to 10 weeks prior to the expected outdoor planting date. Sow them shallowly, around 1/4 inch deep. Hot peppers, and especially super-hot peppers, have a well-earned reputation for being finicky to germinate, but you can increase germination rates by providing bottom heat (highly suggested).
Sincerely,
