Burpbee X Jedi is my personal attempt at an F1 cross of two distinct Jalapeno chili peppers retaining admirable culinary, and culture qualities. In the realm of Jalapeño, a sophisticated and consistent producing Jalapeno requires to be an F1 cross. Easier said than done. Could that have been the name of this prolific producer? As a matter of fact, I have found novelty variegation, plethora of shapes, all retaining the classic bulbous, slender, medium to high-heat level, pepper fruit. Jedi is a very large fruit from a vigorous plant, dark, dark green, with consistent full size funnel shape, and smooth skin. I consider them slow to ripen red; but remain precocious and prolific at 2,500–5,000 Scoville units. Burpbee is tough, slow growing and small at first, but immune to ignorance, extreme weather, and wildlife over the Summer. Dark green, medium-hot, thick-walled fruits. The main reason for crossing these two unique specimens together is to avoid the regression back to a serrano chili pepper shape; with it’s mostly bland green, and hot flavor. Burpbee X Jedi is your choice for a hot, and captivating plant full of hybrid vigor, and a fruit for candy or pickling, that ripens as the epitome of a true chipotle.
