Was discussing super hot chillies on another site were we were didcussing Butch T Scorps as opposed to Bih Jolokias for a backyard grower that has an honesty box out the front. I suggested Bih as they grow like stink and have a name "Ghost"
Then some other bloke dropped this comment
Quote " The top 5 in the million scoville club are all related and left their habaneros ancestor behind.None are hotter than the others and it comes down to how individual fruit and plants are cultivated.I think the accolades given to Dorset Naga for a 1.598 million scoville fruit are undeserved. end quote.

what is true and what is bunk :crazy:
 
We need a link to the qoute to get a better understanding. :hell: Sounds like he is full of hot air to me.

For a a start I don't think the Dorset Naga was ever tested at that level?? More around the 1.0 million mark I believe.

growing conditions can influence the heat of the chillie a lot the dryer the soil the hotter you get. 1 chillie on 1 plant in drought conditions would create a killer of a pod imao :mouthonfire:
 
Yes they can but to say it in such a broad way is misleading. A drought Dorset may well be hotter than a crappy grown Scorpion however he has not stated his list of five. :P

Including me :beer:
But I know where the real weirdos are :mouthonfire:
