Description
The chile ancho or poblano pepper is a mild, about 10 cm long and 7 cm wide chili cultivar with only very slight heat but a lot of taste. In Mexico, ancho pepper is greatly appreciated as dried chili for its sweet flavor. Dried fruits take on a dark violet color. As a fresh vegetable the poblano Chili pepper is often enjoyed stuffed.

Sowing and care
Ancho pepper plants can be kept as annual plants outdoors or as perennial pot plants. We recommend overwintering the plants indoors and keeping them as perennials - in the second year, you can expect a bountiful chili harvest. Press the seeds in your starter soil and keep them warm at all times (approximately 24 °C). Chili seeds need plenty of heat for germination - a heated propagator is very helpful. Grows well indoors. Likes sunny places and nutritious soil. Chili peppers are very nutrient-loving and enjoy vigorous nitrogen fertilization.
