So my husband made some salsa a couple weeks ago and for shits and giggles I decided to save some of the Serrano seeds from one of the peppers and plant them and yesterday I noticed they’re sprouting!! 😂🥰 I also planted some jalapeño seeds from the jalapeño he used but I haven’t seen any sprouting yet from them, but that’s ok- I’d bought some actual seeds for them already so I’ve got 4 jalapeño seedlings that are growing nicely and now these two Serrano! 🙂

Life, uh, finds a way.
Very cool! Be ready for the peppers that grow on the new plants to be slightly different from the serrano and jalapenos from which you extracted the seeds. It’s possible that the plants that produced your peppers were pollinated from other species and you could end up with hybrids.
Cool! I’ve seen people sprout seeds from salsa and other store bought foods
I cant get my Serrano seeds to sprout!! I’ve seen all types of tricks and what not to induce it… maybe I’ll try the bleach trick out
sweet! looks a bit on the dry side though 🙂
