Botanic Description
The Poblano Pepper Plant Starts produce bushy, pendant-type plants with dark green leaves that reach a height of 3 feet. They bear fruits continuously until the arrival of frost. The peppers themselves have a medium size, measuring 4 inches in length, and are dark green in color with a mild to medium level of heat. One can enjoy these peppers by roasting and peeling them, then preserving them through canning or freezing.
About The Heat!
On the Scoville Heat Scale, poblano peppers are at the bottom of the spice spectrum, even though they have a slightly smoky taste. While they may have a mild kick at 1,000-2,000 SHUs, they pale in comparison to the insanely spicy peppers that top the charts at over 1,000,000 SHUs.
