Everything there is to know about growing Trinidad scorpion butch t?

1. as long as it takes
2.depends on pot size, weather, and length of growing season

this is as simple as it gets. do these and you will have a healthy pod producing plant.
 
Very quick anecdote.

I started with 10 trinidad scorp seeds, 3 grew. One died when I gave it to my cousin, and he left it out during a particularly bad storm. The two that survived are 1/3rd the size of my other plants, and have been exposed to the same conditions.

I no longer expect them to produce by the end of the summer.

Aside from that, narrow down your question.
 
1. They germinate in 10-14 days, like any other pepper.
2. Mine aren't very tall - about 1.5 - 2.0 feet or so - but the bushes get wide. I have an overwinter that is about 3' tall, though.
3. Stats? Hot, very hot!
4. Growing help - treat like any other pepper, but they take a long time to ripen - about 120 days from transplant.
