About Hot Pepper Santa Fe Grande Seeds

'Santa Fe Grande' is a productive waxy chile (Capsicum annuum), sometimes called the Guero pepper, that ripens from pale yellow through orange to red. These Santa Fe Grande pepper seeds grow into compact, heavy-yielding plants bearing conical 3–4 inch pods with a warm, tangy medium heat (about 500–5,000 Scoville), perfect for salsas and pickling.

Who it's for

Great for gardeners who want an early, abundant medium-hot chile with a mellow, tangy flavor for fresh and pickled use.

How & when to plant

Start indoors 8–10 weeks before your last frost. Sow 1/4 inch deep in warm soil at 75–85°F; germination takes 10–21 days. Transplant after nights stay above 55°F, spacing plants 18–24 inches apart in full sun. Grow as an annual; best in USDA zones 4–11 with a warm season.

Harvest

Pods mature in about 75–80 days from transplant. Pick yellow for milder, tangier flavor or let them ripen orange-red for more heat and sweetness. Harvest regularly to keep the compact plants producing.

Benefits & uses

Santa Fe Grande peppers are excellent in fresh salsas, pickled in jars, and roasted for sauces. Their bright color and mellow heat make them a versatile kitchen pepper.

Frequently asked questions

How hot is Santa Fe Grande?
