Hello, I started some Jalapeno plants in coconut coir and then transplanted them to soil when they were about 4 inches or so. I have noticed that some of these plants are having leaf curl issue. I did supplement calcium and it is only some of the plants that are displaying this issue. I also...

Thank you :) I will look into them.

Hello all,   I was wondering what the yield difference between hybrid Jalapenos (example Jalafuego) and heirloom / open pollinated varieties (example Jalapeno M) is on average. If anyone has any information, please share. Thank you.

I have not researched too much on the ratios. What I have in mind is 1:1 vinegar to water, however that might change with more research.

Although the video I shared uses mason jars with 2 part lids, I have seen these same machines successfully seal the 1 piece lids we see everywhere commercially. From my understanding you just place the lid on top and the vacuum machine's vacuum sucks the air out which causes the lid to twist and...

This is how vacuum sealing is done: I will get peppers handpicked from fields over a period of a few weeks. Will get cleaned manually in tubs maybe. Next step depends on what kind of packaging I select. If I go with glass jars, I'll get peppers cut and filled in jars by hand. Will have boiling...

  What is your vision for this product and business? To take major marketshare in Pakistan's domestic market for pickled Jalapenos. Market is pretty small, but depends 100% on imports, even though we are an agrarian country. Eventually export to foreign countries. What is YOUR unique item? My...

Thank you for this. I did biomedical engineering in college so I am familiar with this :P 

  As for #1, the only major thing is see is regulations difference. Otherwise I can source all the materials / equipment required for this project.   #2 Probably start with a few metric tons and then scale from there. I will not start with fancy equipment from the get go, however at the same...

No problem. We learn English from kindergarten in Pakistan. Also I did my undergrad from the United States, however that has no bearing on my English skills.   I don't believe that tin canning is much different from glass bottle canning, other than the fact that you require some specialized...

Yes I do.

Yes I'm looking for information on commercial packing for Jalapenos: Glass Jar example: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Mezzetta-Deli-Sliced-Tamed-Jalape-o-Peppers-16-Oz/10313636 Tin/Can example: https://www.walmart.com/ip/La-Costena-Pickled-Jalapeno-Nacho-Slices-26-oz-Pack-of-12/19475590 I have...

I am currently not looking at selling in the United States. I'll be targeting the local market for jalapeno slices. I have successfully canned jalapenos in mason jars in the US, however I wanted to know details for commercial operations. I will be growing the peppers myself.

Thank you all for the warm welcome. And yes I am in Pakistan.

Yup I am.
