one is stubbier, both are around the same length, the other is thinner.

i have yet to test one or crack one open. soon.


btw, the jorhat ones actually ripen from light green to dark green to shades of brown then orange then a bright red.

the gwahati, i have yet to get one to ripen. lol.

i just thought these two strains be interesting.
 
Very interesting, it appears as though my bhut plant is gwahati. I am waiting for one to ripen also.
Thanks for the pic bro. :)
 
mine is like the jorhat version of bhut. :) even the leafs are similar. the ripening colours are the same as well.!:)

blistering heat!! i have tasted it. :) i gave one to Kiddc to taste as well. :)
got 4-5 ripe pods in my plant now. wanna make some sauce by adding to my tabasco chillis.
 
Srin i will try and get you some of my dorset x tabasco seeds. Neil is in the process of stabilizing so still are f1 (thanks boutros) . I have tasted a pod and this is something that seems like you would be after.

I got given this plant from an in-law when it was just a little poorly looked after baby and wasn't expecting to get many if ANY pods of it this season, it's got ten really nice sized pods on it now :D

That does sound pretty cool. I really want to see a chiltepin x bhut/naga, or chiltepin x scorpion though. Or a fatalii x cumari (yellow one). Hmm...maybe I'll try my hand at one of those this year.
