My dad had some “mild” jalapeno he planted in the garden years ago that got little if any water. They were too hot for us to eat. Our friend told us you have to starve them from water to make them hot. Our peppers are not much hotter than banana peppers.

Ok, twice a day waterings! Water puts out fire. They are happy little plants and not the least wilted. Watered them last night and watered in some fertilizer this morning. I like them with just a little kick.
