So, I'm not so totally new to Pepper Growing that I don't know what, say, Scoville Ratings are, or what Capsicum is. That's just common sense from a lifetime of eating spicy foods
But on the matter of Pepper-specific matters, I'm in the dark. So, if anyone would be kind enough to answer me a few questions?
1.) What is nowadays considered the "spiciest pepper?"
2.) What exactly are "superhots?" Is it a specific family or just a grouping of very hot peppers?
3.) Do you refer to your peppers growing on the plant as "pods" or "peppers?" After harvest? Does it even matter?
4.) I've seen "brainstrain" mentioned a few times, and I assume it's a variety of pepper. But, is it an actual type of pepper (like habanero, jalapeno, etc) or more of a nickname?
Just a few things that left me scratching my head. Thanks!
