I grow a ton of Juchinni, Use it all too, I also freeze it raw then vac pack it for wintertime. works great. Zephyr is my favorite!!

forgot to mention, I grow lettuce crops in under the leaves so they are shaded in the hot summer.

BTW, they (at least around here) sell Coolapeno, I grow these because I love the jalapeno "taste" but not the hotness and it bothers my acid reflux. You can also find the seeds at Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds (Nadapeno). Also, I grow scotch bonnet peppers called Sweet Bonnet peppers that have no heat from Baker Creek also. I will say if you have problems with growing peppers, it could be soil temp (they like hot weather) when you set them out, or soil fertility of course or lack of pollination by bees. I have a huge garden that have peppers and a "kitchen garden" close by so I can run out for ingredients and I have had success growing my coolapeno ( or other peppers) in these EMSCO GROUP, meant for patios but works great! It heats up nicely!
