The reason they are all green in the store is that they will stay fresh for
about 3 weeks when picked green. If picked red they last for about a week. The
flavor is better when red, that is one of the advantages of growing your own.
There are now many varieties of Jalapenos, ranging from extra hot to almost no
heat at all. One thing I have found that will help you determine the heat
(within the same variety) is the fruit with a more pointed tip is generally
hotter than the more blunt ones.

Enjoy the heat,
Steve
