flavor Dorset naga and Orange variation......?

[Englander]

Hi Guy's

I have grown Dorset Naga my seeds directly from seaspring seeds so I know there are pukker I enjoy the heat and flavour personally I'd like mine more gnarly I have seen Dorset Naga far more gnarly than my strain......

How does the "orange" Dorset Naga variation compare which I believe it was variation rather than a cross that popped up at Semilas la palma .......?

Anyone grown both how do they compare ??

Hi Guy's

No one !

Fast forward almost a year ................and after watching a YouTube video by Jim Duffy at refinning fire chillies of a harvest were he sang the praise of the Dorset naga orange as far better taste than the Classic yellow Fatallii and better to grow.

Luckily I ordered a packet of seeds from Semillas very recently

And currently have two Bonny baby Dorset naga orange seedlings

If all goes well I will be able to make my own conclusions on this variety this year and compare it to the standard red Dorset naga.......

I've never grown the Dorset Naga Orange, but that's a hell of a claim about it having a far better taste than a yellow Fatalii. Not saying it isn't true, but Fatalii are top notch as far as taste is concerned.

Hi Guy's

Today potted up 7cm to 9cm ans switched the other to 3" net pot in a small kratky set up

I shall only be keeping one specimen to maturity but it will be interesting to compare growth going forward for a while.........I know where my money is

Hi Guy's

Time for Dorset naga orange from Semilas update.

Dorset naga orange in 5 litre kratky hydroponic I've removed all the side branches simply to boost light in my crowded greenhouse ! Plus I'm not trying to grow for yield simply to get a reasonable number of pod's to taste/try .

It's hydroponic roots in 3" net pot and 5 litre kratky container.

One of the pods

A second pod

So far so good I'm really looking forward to trying these obviously not as hot as the Red Dorset naga but it won't be too shabby and it ment to be extremely fruity and tasty

Hi Guy's

Quick update for anyone interested in this variety...........confession time ......

I thought I'd managed to kill my plant after treatment all my Kratky hydroponic with a peroxide root wash only this plant got very upset ! And dropped all its leaves !

However it was covered with pod's....which I left on after putting the plant into pure water.

I've managed to harvest a good number of pod's to try which after all was the objective

Turns out while the plant is extremely pi**ed off with me it's not dead and has started to re shoot never underestimate how tough plant are and every living organisms determination to live and reproduce!

My first Dorset Naga Orange

"Classic yellow Chinense " aroma smells very fruity and very similar to the fresh Scotch brains yellow I added to a stir fry last night. But I expect it to be hotter......

Currently this half is on my stove in a half portion of Nagaland Pork belly curry so I will taste test this evening at dinner.......
