   A google search revealed that diazinon is ok for vegetables
when used according to manufacturer's directions.  This according
to New Mexico State Univ, Okla State Univ and many others.
If you scooped out most of the granules you should be safe.  If
you haven't disowned your brother and he has the label for the
product he used you can verify that.  Pesticides and chiles do mix,
as long as you follow directions.
