chinense Bought some Ghost peppers Fruit

dragonsfire · May 30, 2016

Picked these up yesterday for $3 each. Sometimes its nice to find you can get a handful for cheap. I only have one plant and probably wont get this much. Will use on on a new batch of hot sauce, bought some more tomatoes and red Bell Peppers and the other will dry and keep the seeds.

Wow the stores near me never sell anything like this, what store was it and whats your location-ish
3 bucks for about 10 or 11 pods seems like a good price

Superstore, Medicine Hat, should have them all over.

SCORE!!!!

my local superstore sells them for $7.99 per pack and usually half of the pack is rotten.

(if you are looking for live plants, i purchased a bhut jolokia plant at Rona's for $2.28 per plant and they had a lot of them(they should be half price in a couple of weeks). canadian tire had large followering bhuts for $9.99 per plant but they only had a few, they also had red habs but were very small).

Hope to get out again soon, thanks! Maybe grab a few more packs to dehydrate

They look un-like the Bhut Jolokia I personally have grown (maybe I got seeds for something else?), but good find.

Shape is closer to Naga than Bhut but nice score!

Great find! They look incredibly fresh, too! I agree with Datil. They look like Naga Morich to me. But I love em all!

Looking on the web their seams to by a large variety of Naga Morich.

Dehydrating them now so they keep till the red peppers I bought are fully ripe. Had a lick of the knife from putting slits in the peppers and not as hot as expected, remembering the Ghost I grew last year, so either the type of pepper or growing technique.
Took six seeds and going to grow them and see what happens.

That's pretty cool

I was surprised to find Trinidad Scorpions at the local nursery. I guess the pepper craze has taken root

They do look more naga than bhut but i was wondering how hot those bad boys are?

dragonsfire · Jun 13, 2016

Not as hot as the Ghost I tried from my plant last year, their notch or two lower.

spicefreak · Jun 14, 2016

Probably Dorset Nagas then. IIRC those are arguably Ghosts because they're bred from them and nothing else but their heat is lower because they were bred to be easier to grow in a more western clime, not for potency.
