The total delivery time is based on when the order leaves our warehouse and what shipping method you selected during checkout.

International customers should first contact their local Post Office and Customs Office to see of they are holding your order for a signature or VAT tax payment.

Almost 99% of the time your credit card is declined is because you did not enter the correct billing address. There is a separate field for the shipping address and a separate field for the billing address that you need to fill in during checkout. It is very important that you provide the correct billing address for credit card orders. If the billing address doesn't match exactly what appears on file with your credit card company, the credit card transaction will be declined. So make sure you entered the correct billing address when you place the order. Also double check all of the other credit card information you entered to make sure it is correct (Credit Card Number, Name on Card, Expiration Date, Security Code on back of card)

Almost 95% of the time, when there is a complaint about germination, it is not because there is a problem with the seeds, but in the manner the gardener used to grow the seeds. We had gardeners tell us they used petri-dishes, paper towels, and regular topsoil to grow the seeds. We had other gardeners say they soaked the seeds in water and other weird solutions for several days prior to planting the seeds. The most common mistake however is (1) over-watering the seeds, (2) watering the seedlings too often, (3) covering the seeds with a plastic lid and thus not allowing proper ventilation, (4) and not having the optimum temperature (especially hot peppers which require constant higher temperatures than most vegetables). If the gardener simply followed the Planting Instructions on our website, they wouldn't have experienced any germination problems at all and would have avoided unnecessary frustration of the seeds not growing or the seedlings dying. We recommend using only Miracle-Gro Seed Starting Mix as other seed starting mix have been reported to cause poor germination.

You can find Planting Instructions on the product page above the description of the item.

Just click the Planting Instruction button on the product page and the instructions will appear.

You can also find the Planting Instructions for all the varieties on our main homepage.

Planting Instructions

When there is a complaint about growing hot peppers, the primary reason is that the gardener did not follow the planting instructions on our website. They may complain that they grew all the hot peppers in the same manner, and some grew, while others did not grow. The majority of germination problems with hot peppers are caused by improper growing conditions. This is why we recommend all gardeners follow our Planting Instructions and watch our short video. The most common mistake growing hot peppers is (1) covering the seeds with a plastic lid or plastic wrap, thus not allowing proper ventilation, (2) and not having a constant temperature of 80-85 F. Hot peppers require higher temperatures than most other vegetables, and if the temperatures fluctuate during the day, you will have problems germinating the seeds. If the gardener simply followed the Planting Instructions on our website, and watched the short video on Growing Hot Peppers, they wouldn't have experienced any germination problems at all and would have avoided unnecessary frustration of the seeds not growing or the seedlings dying. We recommend using only Miracle-Gro Seed Starting Mix as other seed starting mix have been reported to cause poor germination.

The optional Expedited Service is for those customers who need their orders filled filled quickly.

Expedited orders are filled first and are usually shipped the following business day.

Non-Expedited Orders are filled in the order they are received and could take a few days to leave our warehouse.

You should add Expedited Service to your order if you need your order filled quickly and also add Priority Mail or Express Mail for shipping method during checkout.

We ship all orders via the US Post Office.

The optional Insurance Protection protects you from a lost or damaged shipment.

Insurance Protection is recommended as our liability ceases upon release of goods to Post Office and we are not responsible for lost or damaged shipments.

Protect yourself by adding the Insurance Protection to the order.

Important: We track all domestic US orders. The Post Office scans the bar code on the package when it is delivered. The scanning of the bar code is the proof of delivery. If you didn't receive the package and your Post Office says it was delivered, you then need to contact your Postmaster to make a formal complaint. When the package is scanned when delivered, the GPS location where the package was delivered is recorded so your local Postmaster should be able to track where the postal courier delivered your package. If the package was scanned and marked delivered, and you didn't receive the shipment, then the optional Insurance Protection would not cover the undelivered shipment, because the Post Office scanned the package confirming the package was delivered by Post Office courier.

Note: There is tracking on some International countries. The US Post Office doesn't track all International shipments because some countries have not standardized their tracking systems. The Post Office tracks some International shipments all the way to their destination. Those Internationals packages that are not tracked, will only have tracking information to the United States departing airport. If you require tracking of your International order, we suggest that you select International Express Mail during checkout, and then you can track your package from the United States all the way to the destination in your country!
