Pepper Ridge Farm · Jan 20, 2008

That is by far the largest selection of hot peppers I've ever seen. You photos are just amazing. What types of peppers are those in the pics? Hope my farm is as productive.

TriniHottie · Jan 20, 2008

Those are mixture... Scotch Bonnets, Habaneros,Morouga Red/Yellow,Faria,Hood, Scorpion and 7 pod.

QuebecFire · Jan 20, 2008

it's awesome how the pods seem to be huge !

TriniHottie · Jan 20, 2008

They are all huge thats why the vendors just refer to all as Congo Peppers... They dont know the correct names... But they be specific for the 7 pots & Scorpions cause they know they are super hot and dangerous...

Is there a place in good ol' Trinidad that tests this stuff? I mean, I can't even find it on Google... when did it had the chance to be Scoville tested? :shocked:

Hi TriniHottie, they look fantastic. How much do you pay for the chillis at the market?

tony05 · Jan 21, 2008

wow incredible scenes of chillis.

I think most chilliheads hearts would stop walking past that.... not that we could walk past!

cheers
