7 Pod or 7 Pot??

[Ragnar]

Which is it? Or is it both?? Or are they different varieties???
 
I'm so confused!
 
Someone set this newb straight. Thanks!

They are the same.  I keep the name based on however they were named when I got the seeds but in conversation I always refer to them as 7 Pots.

 

[capsidadburn]

Either is acceptable. Although quite often debatable!

 

[Ragnar]

Interesting, is there an origin to both or is one a slip of the tongue?

7 go in a pot of stew and you use 7 pods...

So that's 14 altogether, right? Wow. that's a hot stew..... lol

 

[quibz]

Both. I've always called them 7 pots, like hot enough for 7 pots. I guess the same works for pods, like use 7 pods. It is a super hot though... Pod never made sense to me, but that is just my opinion

I always heard one pod heated 7 pots of food. Not 7 pods per pot

Me too, but I think Joyner is trying to tell us his heat tolerance is getting pretty high. 7 in a pot of stew is too much for me.

I am a crazy man!

You are correct, I am just a mad scientist! 

 

[Sarg3]

7 pots of stew per pod.  7 pot pod.  7 pots

 

[JoynersHotPeppers]

My innards say listening to the locals of Trinidad would have been wiser! 

 

[Dulac]

7 pod doesn't make sense, so I think the correct name is 7 pot.

 

[armac]

Personal reasons for naming a pod do not pertain when trying to educate new members.....it was one pod for 7 pots, let's keep it accurate.

7 (or some multiple thereof) Alarm Chilli?

3 cans of black beans, 2.5 pounds of fresh ground venison and (7) 7 pot reds. - It is and was almost too hot to eat however the wife and I knocked back almost 1/2.

This is pretty much my approach, too, though after a year or so, I'll even use Pot in place of Pod for names.
 
Having said that, CARDI itself refers to them as Seven Pod here (pdf) and here (pdf), and as recently as January of this year here (pdf).  I thought I had seen CARDI reference to 7 Pot somewhere, but I'm not finding it now.  I suppose even if the story of one pod spicing up seven pots is true, that could lead to calling it the 7 Pot Pod, shortened to 7 Pod.  In light of this, I may have to reevaluate my preference.
