Hot peppers aren’t all built for the same job.

The variety you choose affects the heat, flavour, texture, and how you use it.

That’s why we keep a range of fresh hot peppers in stock.
Choose 1 for the meal you already make, then bring home a new variety to test alongside it.

Fermenting peppers isn’t a “toss them in a jar” project.

The right amount of salt, clean equipment, and full submersion help create the conditions your ferment needs to develop properly. Follow a tested recipe for the best results.

Pepper plant life cycle, from seed to harvest.

1. Seed
Warmth and moisture trigger germination.

2. Germination
The root emerges first, then the seed leaves open.

3. Seedling
True leaves appear as roots and foliage expand.

4. Establishment
The young plant settles into its final pot or garden bed.

5. Vegetative growth
It builds stems, branches, leaves, and overall plant size.

6. Flowers + fruit set
Blooms open. Pollination leads to tiny peppers.

7. Fruit development + ripening
Peppers grow to size while green, then change to their mature colour.

Ripe colours vary by variety. Some peppers are picked green, while others are left on the plant to fully ripen.

Save this for pepper season.

The seeds get blamed for the heat. They aren’t where capsaicin is made.

In a hot pepper, capsaicinoids are produced in the pale inner membrane, also called the placenta. Seeds sit against it and can pick up capsaicin, which is why they still taste hot.

If you want to reduce the burn while keeping more of the pepper’s flavour, remove the membrane and seeds together.

Pepper plants rarely tell you the exact problem with 1 symptom.

Distorted new leaves, wilt in wet soil, and changing fruit are all reasons to slow down and inspect the whole plant. Look at the pattern before you reach for water or a treatment.

A productive pepper plant makes the end of the season harder to call.

Waiting until frost is already in the forecast leaves you making every decision at once. Make the plan while the weather is still giving you time.

Save this before the next cold night.
