Dave,

I’m a beginner pepper gardener and bought a six pack of what I thought were jalapenos from a local nursery and planted them in my garden. As the plants matured the peppers coming on were light yellow and now are turning orange. They are approx. 3 inches long and 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Two questions: Are they habaneros? And when should they be harvested?’
Thanks,
Scott

Scott:
I think you have ’Yellow Wax Hot’ chiles. They can be harvested at any time.
