Anyone still growing the SB7J?

Wow that is a really cool shape. Almost looks like a mushroom cloud, which goes great with the atomic theme.
 
Yeah, hopefully I can stabilize that shape.

I planted 5 and had all 5 come up. I only have room for two so I'm faced with a hard decision. All are very healthy looking plants. I'm not sure what generation but they came from a member here.

Thanks
i would try to find them homes, ive given a couple friends plants i dont have space for
 
I got a small pack with 3 seeds of it sent to me as that is all they had. So far none has popped while most of my other C, chinense have come, I'm thinking they are a bust, so I will look for some next year as I'm hurting for space as it is.
From what I have heard it is a pretty tasty pepper and worth growing so I will be looking forward to growing it.
 
I have some from 2 sources going now, really looking forward to trying out your cross Patrick. Not positive what Fs.

I'm curious if anyone is still growing it and what generation they're at.
 
Thanks. :P
patrick.. im curious as to what the parents traits were

Got the seeds from pods off silver Surfers grow last years grow. I then shared with a friend in western assuie and here's his photos.



 
 
same guy who sent me the photos above to post on here sent me these pictures below
 

 

 
 
yellow SBJ7s?
 
Patrick, I have plants from Dulac`s Atomic Bonnet selection, plus ones from Coheed196 that have a different phenotype. While the shapes of the pods are awesome, it`s the brilliant flavor that is the best part. Brilliant flavor and decent heat!!!
 
Aye, the flavor is spectacular, Nigel. I noticed slight differences in flavor, but they were generally the same. The one I selected for its shape also had the best taste from what I had to select from last season. I had a plant that grew very tiny SB7Js with virtually the same shape as the one I decided to select, but the flavor wasn't as good. I have some F4 seeds from another member this year. I was wondering what shape best represented the SB7J just in case I come across it, Patrick. I might also cross the atomic SB F4 selection with a Scotch Bonnet MoA.
 
 
Patrick, is the shape you're looking for look like this?

This particular pod from the parent of the atomic SB selection had this abnormal pod (most seemed to resemble Scotch bonnets).

 I'll be stabilizing at least that Atomic Scotch bonnet. Perhaps with other members' help.
 
Looks nice, I'd call it (thermo-)nuclear bonnet or Atomic Bonnet or Tsar Bonnet (in reference to the Tsar Bomba, the world's highest thermo-nuclear explosive yield of 50 MT).
Yeah, Tsar Bonnet would be great, it is reminiscent of Tsar Bomba.

Maybe a cross with a Moruga can earn it the title of Tsar Bonnet :) . It'd be quite hard to retain the shape, but perhaps I can work on it when it's more stable.  I'm afraid I'll lose the heat by crossing it with the SB MoA, but I really appreciate the breeding the Jamaican MoA has done.

Coheed's selection has a very interesting and unique shape. In some pics it kinda resembles a Brazilian Starfish. He's selecting for a more SB look though. Let me know if you have any that look similar to the starfish. I think that's an interesting shape to select.
 
 
Here are the mini SB7Js I was talking about:

They're quite interesting, but I decided not to grow them this year. A bite size SB7J would be cool. The plant was prolific.
