Do you need help identifying a 🌶?
Is your plant suffering from an unknown issue? 🤧
Then ask in Identification and Diagnosis.

Don't be fooled by my giant mitts that's a US quarter for comparison (24.26 mm diameter coin for those not in the us)

Carolina Reaperx Jay's Peach Ghost Scorpion (WhiteHotPeppers)
California Reaper (Reimers)
Jay's Red Ghost Scorpion from 2 different sources (RefiningFireChiles and WhiteHotPeppers) (forgot to label which is which while sowing the seeds
)
Jay's Red Ghost Scorpion x 7 pot Bubblegum (GuatemalanInsanityPepper)
This pepper is interesting, because it is supposed to be a Mustard Habanero (from saved seeds three generations removed from the original source PepperJoe.) The genetics have been stable and consistent until now. This is the first time I have seen it show this chocolate color... so I am wondering if it is a cross, a mutation, or a reversion to a parental type.
Yesterday when I visited my essentially wild garden (I have not taken care of it at all... it has been growing completely on its own) I found that one of the plants, which to this point had not produced any peppers, is laden with the most unreal holy grail gnarly peppers I have ever seen. The pods are dark green and fully formed, so I am hoping they will start ripening soon. I am going to take some pictures of them green on the vine just in case they are attacked before they ripen, because you all need to see these things. I am very grateful to Mojopeppers for essentially gifting me the seeds for that particular variety, as they were out of stock. It will probably be the only plant I attempt to over-winter this year... I might even try cloning it. The variety is "Major Pain." I'll try to get those pics of the green pods up soon!

When a pepper gets goosebumps, it's saying, be afraid, be very afraid!
