Growing Chilli peppers, also Hot peppers

Try feeding fortnightly with Yates Thrive flower and fruit soluble fertiliser. I have never had problems with lack of heat. Also make sure you keep your jalapenos away from any other member of the capsicum family ad they may cross breed and produce fruit that is not consistent with its original description.

'Cross breeding' can only affect plants of the next generation ie the offspring of your current jalapeƱos
