Description
Nadapeno is a jalapeño-style pepper that offers all the classic flavor and crispness of a jalapeño—without the heat. These slender fruits typically measure around 7–8 cm long and mature from deep green to fiery red. Renowned for its heavy yields, sweet taste, and heat-free profile, Nadapeno is a top pick for fresh use, stuffing, salsa, and pickling.
When to Plant in the UAE
Indoors: Start seeds indoors in mid-July, ensuring soil stays warm (≥ 24 °C) to promote reliable germination.
Outdoors: Transplant outdoors by mid-October, once nighttime temperatures consistently remain above 15 °C, avoiding both the peak summer heat and any cool spells that could stunt growth.
Tips for Planting & Care
Light & Soil: Select a sunny location with well-draining, fertile soil; aim for neutral to slightly acidic pH levels.
Depth & Germination: Sow seeds about 0.5 cm deep. Germination typically takes 14–28 days under warm soil.
Spacing: Space plants 45–60 cm apart in rows 60–90 cm apart, ensuring good airflow for healthy development.
Watering: Keep soil evenly moist, particularly during the flowering and fruiting phases—avoid waterlogging.
Feeding: Apply a balanced fertilizer at transplanting and again at fruit set to encourage robust production.
Harvest: Expect green fruit in about 55 days, with fully red, ripe fruits ready by 90 days after transplanting. Use clean scissors or pruners for harvesting.
Handling: Because Nadapenos are mild and heat-free, no gloves are needed during harvesting or processing.
