Is there a difference?i received white 7 pot seeds from judy,while roaming around the net looking for as much info. As i could i stumbled upon duffy stating that there was no such thing as a white 7 pot.Instead it is or should be giant white habanero.SLP offers white 7 pot seeds and giant white habanero.The pics look similar to me.
7pot white or Giant white habanero
- Thread starter mpicante
- Start date
Some say it is 7 Pod/pot,
Others says it is just a white Habanero
We know it never came from Trinidad, we also know breeder Luigi crated the White Giant Habanero
So, is it possible that The White habanero was labeled/mentioned/remained as white 7 pod? yes it is possible
Does, this white 7 pod/Habanero has the heat and taste of a regular habanero ? No, it is way hotter, Stronger and more aromatic than any habanero or Congo variety, maybe one of the reasons why it is accepted as a 7 Pod variety
In some cases, it is very hard/impossible to differentiate among varieties before planting them for several growing seasons from several sources
Many thought that Brain Strain is the same as Moruga Scorpion, well after 4 years of planting both, and documenting the results, they are not the same variety, one is smaller, Hotter, rougher (Brain strain).

I think that growing conditions and weather have a lot to do on how pods taste, even separate pods often are hotter or have less heat.
I grew what was called a white 7 pot and the GWHab and though they looked the same to a degree, the White 7 pod had some pods that did look different from the GWH and some of the White 7 pods were much hotter than most of the GWH which was growing near each other, although the GWH did get a little more shade but I doubt that made any difference. Both how ever produced well and I got way more pods than some of my super hots, so I was happy with both production and flavor which was pretty close to each other, heat wise was a mix on the White 7 pod some being much hotter than other pods on the same plant, both heat and flavor was nearly the same on all the pods on the GWH, so I have to go with the two being different varieties at least to me.
