Pointed pepper seeds

I’ve got a question about pointed peppers. I’d like to grow my own this year, and I wonder if I can use the seeds from one of my bought pointed peppers.

The question is, if the sold sorts are hybrids. Seeds from hybrids often result in very random plants, unlike the parent plant. I don’t know the word for the opposite of hybrid, but such plants can be regrown from their seeds with good results.

The pointed pepper in question s a high quality sort from Israel. But I have no sort name or such, just the country of origin.

Additional question: Some seeds won’t sprout until after a period of cold. Do I have to put those seeds into the freezer for some days, to simulate winter?

Maybe there are some hobby garderners around who can help :slight_smile:
