Hi,
does anyone know if jalapenos are sweeter when red than green. I
grew some and they weren't hot at all when roasted in the frypan. I
haven't tried the green ones yet. But my half ripe yellow waxy were
hotter.

TIA

In my experience red jalapenos are definitely sweeter than green. The
variety of jalapeno seems to be what determines the heat ( along with
weather, etc.) For example I've found the Delicias variety to be heatless
and Biker Billy (my favorite) to be very hot.
