85 days, Hybrid, Mild
Trident F1 hybrid has the advantages of producing high yields of exceptionally large, thick-walled poblano-type peppers (6” by 3”), performing better under cool conditions, ripening early and disease resistance. The tall, widely-adapted plants produce richly flavored, smooth, glossy dark green fruits that taper to a flat point, with relatively gentle heat measuring only 250 to 1,500 Scoville units, ideal for chiles rellenos, stews, or frying. The fruits maintain their size over multiple pickings. When allowed to fully mature to deep brick red, they are dried (called Ancho), and are essential for making chile powder and sauces, especially the classic mole.
