Quick note: My seeds are grown, harvested and selected by me. I start ALL of my seedlings/transplants, so you know there are no chemicals, pesticides, insecticides, or harsh commercial fertilizers used in the products I produce. I use organic fertilizer, compost, and red worm castings, that's it! I do not buy foreign seeds or seeds that are out of date. I have been growing these varieties for years and they are proven winners. You will not be dissapointed. HEIRLOOM VEGETABLES JUST TASTE BETTER! MADE IN USA Back in 2010 I bought my first assortment of heirloom seeds, off ebay actually, from Blue Ribbon Tomatoes. Unfortunately, they are no longer selling heirloom tomato seed, boo! Anyway, I bought 100 or so varieties and have been growing them out ever since. I also am a big fan of heirloom chilies and peppers. One of the hot peppers I've continued to grow, that has been a favorite, are MEXICAN FINGER HOTS. MEXICAN FINGER HOTS hot pepper seeds, heirloom, open-pollinated, non-gmo. 25 seeds per packet. MEXICAN FINGER HOTS have a fantastic flavor, are a dark green, maturing to a bright red with a tapered bottom. Like a fat cayenne without the heat. Very productive. It has performed amazingly well for me in the high desert frontier at 4100 feet. My growing season is sometimes very long (May-November) and other years it can end in early September. No matter, this variety puts on a ton of fruit and does very well regardless of length of season. Great flavor and appearance. This is a thin skinned pepper, so it dries very well as you can see in my photos. I still have one of these plants in a pot growing next to my back sliding glass door. It is still putting out peppers too! The heat is not too hot. It actually has a fantastic chili flavor. I typically throw this into salads and stir fries when fresh and use it for chili flakes when dried. Also makes good ristras. This is a very productive chili, putting on tons of fruit per plant. Not much history on this other than it was discovered growing in the state of Sonora, Mexico. HEIRLOOM VEGETABLES JUST TASTE BETTER! INCLUDES BASIC GROWING INSTRUCTIONS All seeds are dried and stored at 34f degrees until you purchase them. I have been saving seed for 7 years and this is the step-by-step process I use every year and I'll tell you; my germination rates are amazing! a quick note on seed storage... I feel through my experience the best way to store your seed is in the refrigerator. Some vegetable varieties produce seed that remains viable for many years (tomatoes) and others produce seed that does not store well under any conditions (onions). I believe seed stored under refrigerated conditions could last 10 years or more. I have just planted some ACE 55 seeds from 2000 in summer 2017. They did great! Germination rates were in the 90% range and these seeds had been sitting in a box in my garage for the past 17 years! I have some of that seed available now listed as Marlboro Ace 55. GET SOME! At Frontier Farms, we specialize in many varieties of Heirloom tomatoes, peppers, plus many other vegetable varieties. WHAT IS AN HEIRLOOM? Heirloom plants are grown from seeds that have been handed down thru generations, saved from year to year, some varieties dating back hundreds of years. Many made the migration from Europe and the East with the immigrants coming to the USA. The seeds are never cross pollinated and so they remain true to their particular characteristics. Heirloom tomatoes come in all colors, shapes, and sizes ? Reds, Pinks, Yellows, Orange, White, Green, Striped, and Black. Ranging in sizes of cherry and grape to large grapefruit size, meaty, or juicy. WHY HEIRLOOM? These tomatoes and other vegetable varieties are more natural, they are non-GMO (genetically modified). They do not have as long of a shelf life as store bought tomatoes/vegetables, but that is what makes them special. They have a real fantastic tomato flavor not found in grocery store offerings. These tomatoes/vegetables are indeterminate (they grow all season; they flower all season, and they produce tomatoes all season. They don't stop until frost. Once heirloom tomatoes and vegetables are picked, they do not have a long shelf life as hybrids but they more than make up for any shortcomings in flavor. This is true for all heirloom vegetables.Please see my other listings and my store for more great varieties and thank you!
