I haven't sprouted anything yet, but am so excited about the upcoming season that I wanted to start a thread. I'm going to sprout close to 20 seeds sometime before the end of the month.

One More Superchile sprouted. So far, 16 our of 20 have sprouted.
Patrick,
To answer you question, the 50,000 scovilles that I report is just a guess. For the commercial F1 Superchile's, information on the internet has them between 30,000 and 50,000 scovilles. The ones I grew were not more then 30,000 (again my best guess, knowing the scovilles of popular chile's) and the F2's from last year that were longer were hotter. The sprouts from those saved seeds, I am labeling as 50,00 scovilles. As a mentioned earlier in the Glog, my seed isolation efforts may have been a waste as last years plants were all grown near each other and I watched the Bees cross everything. I am having too much fun to care whether they grow true. We'll see when the pods come.

oooh they are!
I was about to take and post more pictures, but I left my camera at a family party. Some sad news to report: It looks like one of the superchile's is not going to make it. This sprout fell victim to the type of soil. A hard whitish part was stuck to the top of the sprout. This frequently happens, but usually, the cotyledon breaks free and the dirt falls off. In this case, the particle has remained on the top and no leaves have formed. The stem is still green, so I haven't given up hope yet, but the prospect of continued life does not look good.
