Not what I thought...

Can anyone help me ID this one? The package was labeled Carolina Reaper, but the other Reaper Pods on the other plants look like Reapers... These, not so much.




Thanks,

Thank you! How come the hot pepper seeds I ordered always end up being mild something else? They never give me Butch T instead of the Moruga Scorpion, always mild instead of hot...

Appreciate the help!

Not sure where you are getting your seeds from.  Check out the vendor vault for good reviews:

This. Never buy from eBay or Amazon. Plenty of top notch growers here.

+1 on the eBay advice - You will never know what you are really getting.  Also, THP is a great resource - members love to trade or sell seeds.

Brazilian Starfish are my favorite pepper.  From my perspective, getting a starfish instead of another reaper is a nice bonus.  You can grab a handful of starfish and eat them while walking about the yard.  Doing that with a handful of reapers is, at best, a harrowing task for most of us!  But hey...that's just my opinion - I am admittedly a superhot weenie.

I agree... Choose your seed vendor with care! Thanks.
