Possible but not probable. First because store produce is often picked immature for shipping so the seeds haven't matured. And second because there is a 99% chance that a yellow pepper is a hybrid variety. Most hybrids don't breed true, they revert to their parent stock. So you may get some peppers but they won't be the same.

Still, if you have the time and want to make the effort, you have nothing to lose so is worth a try just to see what you do get.

PS: if you want to read more about using seeds from store produce just search 'store bought' for more discussions.

just dry the seeds and use the baggie method to sprout,i did this before and they werent te same but they were pretty good.

If it was yellow it is mature, that is why they charge double+ per pepper. I just throw them out in the bed and let them go. For other types of peppers I go into the spice areas where they put out those dried peppers. For the price of those peppers I get a hundred times as much seed as I would if I bought the seed only. The nice thing about gardening is the fun in learning all the time.

My grandson's Scout project called for half of the boys to plant pepper seeds from a purchased package and the other half to sow seeds from a pepper bought at the grocery store. His half grew them from the grocery store pepper and believe it or not, it was a decent success. The plants were not as robust or productive as the others in the garden but they did have enough peppers for him to be a happy Scout.

Since growing from seed was new to me last year I probably made a lot of mistakes...so far happy mistakes I might add..anyway I purchased some mini bell peppers in red, green, orange and yellow and saved the seeds. I planted them and ended up with some very nice little peppers although I picked most of them while still green since I was impatient. The flavor was very good also. It never hurts to try. Kim
