Will produce lots of peppers. And I mean alot. Plenty for fresh, dried or canned. Peppers can be used fresh, or dried at the end of the season to provide you with plenty for winter use.
Garden Salsa produces smooth peppers. Medium to hot heat, good pepper flavor. Produces huge yields. Most are very easy to grow. They thrive in warm weather and are very drought tolerant.
They start out green and then turn bright red when mature. This is one of the best peppers for making salsa.
Add them to salsas, sauces and soups; pickle, stir-fry or roast them.

Gray Mold Botrytis Fruit Rot
Botrytis cinerea
This fungus disease attacks the ripe fruit of strawberries, blackberries and other fruit, causing them to be enveloped and digested by a cloud of fuzzy gray mold. It is most prevalent in cool weather with high humidity. The danger of this disease is one of the reasons strawberry growers fear rainy weather.
The best way to prevent this disease is to keep your plants dry (use drip irrigation if necessary). Of course if it rains there isn’t much you can do, except to remove infected berries (to reduce source of infection) and give good air circulation.
