Cascabel is a round, 2-3 cm large Mexican chili used for many classic hot sauce recipes. The fruits have a spicy aroma, which fits perfectly with beans. The pungency is relatively mild. Dried cascabel chilies obtain a brown color and remind of a
rattle (the seeds make a rattling noise).

Zero germination

1 of 5 stars
by Meldra on 5/21/22

These weren’t the only chillies I ordered from this company. I also had Lemon Drop and Trinidad Perfume. First batch of all three was started in soil, Lemon Drop was a champion, although only 9 seeds arrived, not 10. Trinidad Perfume was slow and painful, but managed to get some germination in a wet tissue two weeks later. Cascabel seeds arrived darker than others and were simply dead, neither soil nor wet tissue could reviwe those for more than a month (same moisture/temperature conditions that worked great/good for other chillies and peppers this season). No Cascabel plants for me!

Expected phenotype

5 of 5 stars

I haven't been very successful with my seedlings this year, however all seeds that worked came from MGS. Cascabel and pasilla thrived and correspond to the expected phenotype. I haven't been lucky with the chilhuacle negro seedlings.
