Hot pepper and lime are a perfect combination of flavours. It's a classic combination worldwide.

Prik kee nu suan is a small Thai pepper and very hot but not much of a flavour other than a good burn. Prolific and easy to grow.

Is there an environmental advantage to replanting with seed from the same dirt/climate/seasonal characteristics?   No.

IMHO Jamaican jerk is best with Scotch bonnet, or maybe a similar chinense (Burkina yellow, chocolate Congo,,,), Thai peppers for Thai food work best and of course Mexican food is best with traditional peppers called for in the recipe. (Chipotle, Mulato, Poblano, whatever.) Traditional foods...

Nice looking peppers. It looks like your plant has decided that this is enough production for this year and is aborting further new pod development, normal behavior in a high heat (stress) situation. They look fantastic!

Hot peppers are the ultimate herbal metabolic stimulant esp. for circulation and digestion, a topical pain killer (sore lower back etc..), and are a very weak antiseptic.  As with almost anything you can overdose on them.(sorry)

First one looks like a Chimayo.

Beautiful pepper, does look like a frutescens.

1. Wiri Wiri 2. Charapita 3. MOA Scotch Bonnet 4. Dalle khursani 5. Cheiro Recife (Semillas La Palma) all flavour, no heat

solid7 sent me some wiri wiri pods he grew. It is the real deal for sure, haven't had them in over 10 years, what a fantastic flavour, nothing like it. So happy these generous people are still out there, it's almost impossible to get  REAL Wir Wiri seeds. Many thanks to him, what a great gift.

Just amazing plants and crop, thanks for posting, excellent ! Raised bed next year for me.

What do you think of the taste?

If it's sea salt, do not put it on your soil, ever.

That looks like one cool pepper, the wiri wiri I know is round and pea sized though. 

I've only grown once and got small but usable rhizomes. Large pot, (5gallon) loose rich soil, full sun, if my growing season was longer they would have been bigger. Best thing in the word to include in your diet: anti cancer, anti inflammatory, anti oxidant, great for digestion, skin, liver...

Your plants look great, they will need a couple of months before you see any peppers. The bigger the pot, the larger the plant, the more peppers. NPK every third watering or so, make sure the soil they go in has some dolomite added (for calcium and magnesium) and some good compost. Never hurts...

That looks like the culprit, my God it's hard to find these seeds, really nice taste. Let me know where I can get some seeds if you get a chance, and how much, thanks, Rob.

CAPCOM, do you have a description of your Cumari do Para or a picture? I wonder if they are what I grew. I have to get more seeds somewhere and your description of flavour sounds like what I would say of the ones I grew. Let me know, these peppers are priceless.
