Habanero Trick or Treat NuMex Pepper Seed

This is a no-heat habanero pepper that looks and tastes like an orange habanero. The flavor and aroma of Trick or Treat is equal to, or better than a hot habanero. This variety was crossed with a Capsicum chinense orange habanero that was lacking the capsacin heat gene.

Make salsa with incredible flavor by using six Trick or Treat peppers and one hot habanero. The flavor will be out of this world!

The orange lantern shaped pods grow on 24”-36” tall plants that continue to produce fruit all summer long. Capsicum chinense (95 days) Heirloom - Open-pollinated

Heat Level: Sweet.  Scoville Heat Units: 0

~ Packet contains 10 seeds.

*Note: Low germination percentage at 50%. We are glad to bring this pepper back. We encourage you to save your own seeds from your peppers for increased seed vigor and germination next season! 

In early spring, start seeds indoors 8 weeks prior to warm nightly temperatures. Place the seeds in sterile media and cover 1/4” deep. Provide 85°F bottom heat, bright light and keep moist at all times. Seeds will germinate in 7 - 21 days. Transplant seedlings into pots and grow until there are 6 true leaves on the plant. Plant them directly into rich soil, 30" apart or into large 5 gallon containers. Harvest peppers when they are orange.
