How We Test & Verify Every Pepper Seed Lot

We treat chili seed production with scientific rigor. Here is how your seeds make it from pollinated blossom to high-vigor packets.

01

Blossom Isolation

To prevent cross-pollination between varieties, blossoms are either individually mesh-bagged before opening or cultivated in positive-pressure insect-screened greenhouse bays.

02

Float & Density Grading

Harvested seeds undergo careful water immersion sorting. Hollow or underdeveloped seeds float to the surface and are discarded, ensuring only dense, fully developed embryos are packed.

03

30-Seed Germination Assay

A random sample of 30 seeds per lot is incubated under controlled 78°F–85°F bottom heat. Observations and high-resolution photos are recorded at Days 1, 7, 14, and 21 to calculate the official viability rate.
