That sounds like a cool cross, can you post a pic, I would like to see the yellow Jalapeno.

Mark

I'm with Mark! Please post a pic.

Am taking one yellow pepper along with my photos down to the County Extension Bureau/Agent & maybe they will send it to NM State Chile Institute.

Am so sorry... but have never learned to post pics on this forum unfortunately !

So far the flavor seems to be similar to the dark green jals on the plant next to it; will see what happens when these yellow ones ripen! We also have some plants that grow large, round 3/4 in. chilies & are turning a bright red just now; the seed bought & mailed x China was SUPPOSED to be 'pequin' but the ad called it 'tepin' .. Our 'John's "'Sin Nombre" ' seed we in fun 'named' & grow every year is some kind of an old (rather hot!) New Mexican chile a local fellow gave us at a grower's market & his family had grown for years but had no idea the name. Lots of fun!

You sure you don't have Jaloro? That's a yellow Jalapeno variety.

Mark, if you want to see a yellow Jal just search on Jaloro. :-)

Pam

kuvaszlvr: Yep, I bet we got some of that mixed in the Early Jalapeno seed I bought!! Now I have another chile to add to my collection ... thanks!

greenman: problem: my pics are only on my camera!

Here you go...

Pam thanks for the info, looks like the final color is red though. It would be cool to have it ripen yellow. May give it a try sometime.

Vieja, awesome pic and healthy looking plant. It's neat to see a yellow jalapeno or jaloro as Pam pointed out.

Mark

Hard to tell from the photo, but those look light green, the jaloro is very yellow, at least mine are. And yep, they will ripen to red, but it takes forever. They stay yellow a very long time. They are ok, nothing like BIker Billy or Jalastar, just plain old Jalapeno flavor. Mine at least. Next year I'm going to try some Black Jalapenos, I grow the purple, which are very pretty, but the black looks cool.
Pam

Nice peppers, keep us updated as they ripen!

Josh

Or a scotch pepper!

I believe what Vieja was growing was a Jaloro (yellow Jalapeno) which was developed by the Texas Agricultural Extension Service. They start out as golden yellow then turn orange and eventually turn red. I grow them each year and use them at the yellow stage along with green jalapeno's in dishes...

Scotch Bonnet Pepper is likely the pepper plant you are referring to.

So I don't think mine is a scotch pepper i am pretty sure it's just habinaro because I just ate one and omg my mouth is on fire also they haven't turn red just strictly orange

Scotch Bonnet is significantly hotter than the regular Habanero.

Do you think they taste like habanero ?

hahaha, for a pepper grower, I am relative wimp at eating them. With me, anything that is as hot as a Hab is so hot to me that after the first 2 seconds of eating one, my taste buds are so fried that all they taste is pain. What does "pain" taste like you ask? It tastes like a lug nut off Tony Stewart's Sprint Cup car after 50 laps at Martinsville.

I have a green pepper (not sure which type) that is turning yellow, can anyone enlighten me as to which type of pepper it is and why it's going yellow?

This is the pepper I need advice on

I have the light green ones as well. The seeds for these plants came from a dried jalapeño I grew two years ago. I grew 10 plants from that one jalapeño but this one plant produces the light green ones.

Does it have anything to do with cold weather? I've got a habanero with pods turning white to orange, after it was brought inside.

Also, a jalapeno that was pumping out green maturing red, is now producing yellow pods.
