Bought seeds in late fall 2021 for the 2022 growing season and writing review near end of 2022 season. Germination rate was good. I only planted 3 seeds and all grew (kept 2 plants and gave one away). Planted both plants near each other in a slightly raised (mostly in ground) bed with about 6 or so hours of sun per day. They were some of the most productive peppers I grew this year! Both plants did well, grew about 3 feet tall and yielded hundreds of peppers (and still going)! Peppers range from about 1.5 to 2.5 inches long. They did not seem to take too long to ripen to a brilliant yellow color. They are appropriately categorized as a medium heat seed and I would say are slightly spicier than my cayennes. They have a somewhat floral flavor. We have used them in pico, have made hot sauce (pineapple/mango) and dried to be made into powder. Overall, very pleased with these and will be growing them again next year.
Aji Gold (Limon) Pepper Seeds
The peppers are great!
So far I’ve had fantastic success with the Aji Gold seeds, a nearly 80% germination rate and the batch appears true to type based on foliage and flowers. We’ll know more in a few weeks when the pods mature!
I grew these in two-gallon pots and they were still very productive, I got 20-50 peppers from each plant even though they were barely a foot tall. They don't have very much flavour raw, but I made them into chili powder and it came out very flavourful and spicy. I'd say they're 30,000-90,000 scovilles. They take a while to ripen.
