Who is growing hot peppers this year?
I have about 50 butch t Trinidad scorpion crossed with the moruga scorpion pepper plants about 4 inches tall, I started the seeds from ones I saved from last year.
Also i just planted 50 of the Carolina reaper seeds. The “Butch T” measures a whopping 1,463,700 Scoville heat units. Now that's HOT!!@!%!
The reaper are supposed to average a 1,569,300 on the Scoville scale with peak levels of over 2,200,000 Scoville Heat Units (SHU). Mostly I gave a lot of the peppers away to people who like to eat them and saved a few for myself to make pepper flakes.
I ate a quarter of a butch t and thought I would die lol. I did enjoy the burn after the initial heat.
Any other pepper heads out there?? Anyone local who would like a few plants let me know.
Any growing tips to increase the heat??
