{"product_id":"early-jalapeno-pepper","title":"Early Jalapeno Pepper","description":"\u003cp\u003eEarly Jalapeño is a compact, exceptionally productive hot pepper variety that delivers generous harvests of traditional jalapeño peppers on remarkably small plants. In our 2026 growing trials, plants reached just 16 inches tall yet produced astonishing quantities of peppers measuring up to 2½ inches long. Their manageable size and impressive productivity make Early Jalapeño an excellent choice for small gardens, raised beds, and containers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs its name suggests, Early Jalapeño was developed for gardeners seeking a head start on the jalapeño harvest. To evaluate its performance, we grew six jalapeño varieties side by side, starting and transplanting them on the same dates. Early Jalapeño produced its first 2½-inch pepper eight days ahead of our standard Jalapeño Traveler, although several other varieties matured around the same time. What impressed us most was the sheer productivity of its compact plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEarly Jalapeño offers the familiar jalapeño flavor and moderate heat that make these peppers so versatile in the kitchen. Their convenient size is ideal for homemade salsa, pickled jalapeños, hot sauce, and spicy relishes. For gardeners looking to enjoy an earlier harvest without sacrificing productivity or garden space, Early Jalapeño is a dependable choice. Approximately 60–65 days to maturity. Each packet contains a minimum of 25 seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Early Jalapeno","offers":[{"title":"Packet (25 Seeds)","offer_id":67601515086073,"sku":null,"price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0955\/4450\/files\/early-jalapeno-pepper-seeds-1266145602.jpg?v=1793831591","url":"https:\/\/www.threshseed.com\/products\/early-jalapeno-pepper","provider":"Thresh Seed Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
