MY EXTREME Yummy Orange Thread

N

newhotstuff

So my plan this spring is to grow 100 yummy orange plants. I already have enough seed trays and alot of pots. I'm planning to start 100 plants and see if using a little grow-tech can get them outside by April 1st in some covered raised beds and hopefully the plan is by June I'll have enough pepper porn to make you all envious. Why Yummy Orange? Have you tasted one yet? Also they have no heat so if I did try mass producing some, I figure there's no liability like there is with the INSANELY hot ones.

STAY-TUNED
 
No pod shots they were all eaten within minutes!!

I thunk I posted a "sweet deal" offer with them included but no one responded.

Hoping with last years experience I have some serious sucess.
 
I'm intrigued. :think: What exactly are you going to do with 100 plants worth of pods? Powder? Sauce? Take them to market? It sounds like too many to give away unless you live in a chilli hippy commune. Growing that many just for pepper porn seems a bit excessive.

I dream of a huge garden full of raised beds and chillis. :drooling: Don't think I could stick to one variety though.


Also if it was me, I'd go for 101 plants :crazy:
 
What is a yummy orange? Is it a new one?
Sounds like a winner because most people are wimps when it comes to hot stuff. I'm about the only one I know around here that likes hot food.
Where did you get the seeds?
 
Yeah yummy orange tastes like candy and have 4-5 seeds inside. It's about the size of a jalapeno. Planning to grow them and sell them to Whole Foods which has 2-3 locations in the area. I will grow other types but producing one in quality is a good spot to start.

I got a plant from chiliplants and even before it was delivered it was sold out.

"this is the sweet pepper found in clamshells in the supermarket that everyone is talking about"

I thought that's what it looked like looking at the picture. Those are pretty tasty. No heat, but far, far tastier than a bell pepper (then again, what isn't?).

I saved some seeds from the ones I bought at the grocery store so I'm going to try growing them.

I dunno who they're talking about in that quote but in New England they're absent.
 
Meh... I had a Yummy Orange plant last year and it wasn't that special. In fact, it was pretty disappointing. It tasted like a bell pepper... but sweeter... and with very few seeds. I wasn't really impressed, but then, for some reason that C. chinense flavor seems to agree with me more.
