Dried Coyote Zan Yellow Pepper

Dried Coyote Zan Yellow Pepper is a Capsicum chinense cultivar native to Brazil, belonging to the same family as the Coyote Zan White but characterized by yellow fruits and very small size.

The Coyote Zan Yellow Plant

The plant has a compact habit, very well suited to pot cultivation, with dark green oval leaves; the fruits, extremely small and shaped like an elongated tooth, turn from light green to yellow at maturity.

How to Sow Coyote Zan Yellow

Sow in a heated seedbed between February and March, keeping temperatures constant at 25-28°C until germination, which usually takes 2-3 weeks.

How to Grow Coyote Zan Yellow

Transplant from April to June, once temperatures start to rise steadily. It prefers full sun, permeable fertile soil; thanks to its small size it is particularly suitable for balcony growing too.

Heat Level and Care Tips for Coyote Zan Yellow

The heat level is medium-high (about 60,000-200,000 SHU): gloves are essential when handling the fruits, carefully avoiding contact with eyes and mucous membranes.

Diseases and Pests of Coyote Zan Yellow

It can be affected by aphids, spider mites and whitefly; avoiding wetting the foliage during watering reduces the risk of fungal disease.

Properties and Uses of Coyote Zan Yellow

The high capsaicin content gives strong thermogenic and metabolism-stimulating properties. Dried Coyote Zan Yellow pepper, prized for its fruity, lightly aromatic flavor, is used ground into powder or flakes; the fruits can also be frozen or eaten fresh.
