Re: A thread for hot pepper-a-holics...
No, I've never grown them but they look like hot mother.......!!!
If you get some seeds, perhaps we'll arrange a trade Richard! I'll see if I might be able to get them also. They sound and look cool. : ) |

Re: A thread for hot pepper-a-holics...
Here's one of my bhut jolokia starting to germinate. I have a few other species like cayenne, trinidad scorpion, cayenne, jalepeno, pequin & devil's tongue, and it will be very fun to watch them grow once I get them into their individual pots by around May.
Here's the little jolokia.

Wow, your seeds look great and yes it will be fun to watch them grow. Let us watch them with you and feel free to post more shots.

Re: A thread for hot pepper-a-holics...
I think the bhut's are a form of Scotch Bonnets. Then there is Chef Jeff's Best (trade marked).

Re: A thread for hot pepper-a-holics...
Here is an interesting recipe that I stumbled on - I thought some of you Hot pepper lovers might like it.
A cookie recipe, made with the Chocolate Trinidad habanero pepper shown here. Chocolate Habanero Fireballs 1 (12-ounce) package semi-sweet chocolate chips 1/4 cup butter 1/2 cup almonds, finely chopped (toasted if desired) 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon dark rum (Myers’s or Gosling 80 proof preferred) 1 Chocolate Trinidad seeded and finely chopped (or other habanero pepper 1/3 cup Splenda Melt chocolate and butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in almonds, rum and chopped habanero and mix well. Refrigerate mixture about 15 minutes. Shape into 1-inch balls, then roll in Splenda to coat. Store in refrigerator. It is suggested you wear rubber gloves when chopping the pepper and while shaping the balls. Makes about 3 dozen. I am not so sure that I would put peppers in cookies, but I do like jalapeño jelly! ~JaNan

Re: A thread for hot pepper-a-holics...
The Bhut Jolokia strain is originally from Peru.

Re: A thread for hot pepper-a-holics...
I thought all peppers originated in South America ie. tomatoes, and corn. They were just exported to different parts of the world and developed into new hybrids.

There were no chili peppers (or tomatoes, guavas, and other new-world plants) in Europe until 1525, nor in Asia until 1526 when Dutch and Spanish Galleons made port in Manila.

Re: A thread for hot pepper-a-holics...
Loving these two types I've got going. This is the "Little Blue" variety that was in my aero-garden. I transferred it to soil and it's thriving. It's already got buds on it. Love the purple speckled leaves too...
Here are my 2 handsome little "Black Pearl" seedlings... : ) |

Re: A thread for hot pepper-a-holics...
Those are beautiful Sherry!
You know, after seeing your Black Pearl, my Hot Marble looks like it could be a clone and has me doubting mine is a Hot Marble! I mean I wouldn't be upset, because it is a beautiful plant. And I have all my seeds separated and marked, and I am so anal about my labels, but I am doubting myself now. Your Hot Marble doesn't look like mine! What do you think? I guess I will know by the size soon! ~J

Re: A thread for hot pepper-a-holics...
Ive cut back this year compared to years past, I only have 30 different varieties of hot peppers growing this year compared to the almost 60 I had last year. As soon as I can get back outside and take some pictures I will post them up for you.

Re: A thread for hot pepper-a-holics...
Fatalii I was growing in a tiny pot just to see how it would do, it did amazingly well.
Some bumpy Bhut Jolokias Ripe and next to a Chocolate Habanero Tree Hab pulled from the ground. The ceilings in my detached garage are 9' I will have a bunch of new varieties this year so I will try and post up some pictures in here for you all. |

Re: A thread for hot pepper-a-holics...
Fatalii and Yellow Scorpion Cardi were some of the most prolific plants I have ever grown
And the Red 7 Pot was not too far behind. |
