Pepper - Ancho Villa (Poblano)
Product Info
This pepper is a dependable producer of 7 inch long by 3 inch wide hot peppers. The fruits turn from green to red when mature. Mildly hot, with a bite. May need staking because of the heavy yields. Used in Mexican cooking, excellent for making chili rellenos and for canning. Good disease resistance. As with all hot peppers, remember to wear gloves or wash your hands thoroughly after picking or preparing these fruits.
Water: | Water frequently for 2 weeks after setting plants in the garden to establish a good root system. Do not allow pepper plants to wilt; this can stress your plants, reducing yields. A slow, deep watering at the roots about once a week is fine (including Mother Nature's contributions) unless your plants are wilting. |
Mature: | 78-85 days |
Harvest: | Pick green for stuffing but allow to ripen to red for drying. HANDLE WITH CARE -- always wear gloves or wash your hands after handling hot peppers. |
