Pepper Picks: Bells & Jalapeños
Explore this past webinar's recording and slide deck.
OVERVIEW: We offer a sizeable selection of peppers. So, how do you choose from so many promising varieties? Join Steve and Nate as they delve into our assortment, emphasizing two of our larger pepper categories, green-to-red bell peppers and jalapeños.
The varieties within these groups possess the characteristics we look for when adding to our pepper lineup: good eating quality, adaptability, and high-yielding plants that are easy to grow. Our research has identified varieties that perform better in different settings and against various pressures.
We aim to explore these pepper groups in detail to help make your selection process easier this season!
Our peppers team conducts seed variety trials at our research farm in Maine and regional locations, including Georgia, Florida, and California, to ensure we have the best varieties for each growing area. As a result, we offer an increasing number of bells and jalapeños with regional adaptability and improved disease resistance, including quite a few varieties from our breeding program.
A Q&A session follows the presentation, where Steve and Nate answer questions from the audience.
