Found them growing in a random plot of dirt in Toronto in the middle of our early Canadian winter. They seemed to be thriving. Bit into one then and there, delicious. An almost tangy flavour accompanied their intense heat, like a more flavourful cross between a Thai chili and a Scotch Bonnet flavour-wise.

They look a little more red dominant in the photo, but they’re kind of an even orange-red blend in my eyes.

Mystery seeds. This 1 plant out of 20

On miracle grow, osmocote and water daily but not growing fast. Any advice welcome.

What can I do with these peppers. Any ideas . Didn’t like them raw. Thank you!

These are some cayennes and jalepenos. First time ever trying to get them through winter. Theyve been in the house for about 7 weeks now. Temp is around 12 degrees celcius.

Do i need to cut them back? Pull the last fruit? Some are also flowering again?

Are these pots too small for a decent harvest? They are only a few weeks old right now.

I won't really have much room after I spread them out.

Also, would I be able to take these outdoors in spring next year after I harvest indoors and have them restart again?

Thank you!

Hi everyone.

For those that try a lot of peppers, can you tell me peppers similar to Trinidad scorpion both in taste and spice level?

I was thinking about 7 pot brain strain maybe?

Thanks

I came across this delivering packages today. I did a double take and then had to take a picture. I’m dumbfounded. Discuss…

I want to hear what you all are planning on growing next year! I have Trinidad Scorpions, T Rex Red, Jay's peach ghost, and about 10 different scotch bonnet varieties

Neighbor just has several trees growing by their taco truck when I came to visit my aunt’s for thanksgiving. Would like to know what I’m about to eat and grow from the seeds.

Recently got the delivery of this vicious beast gonna try this for the very first time and update yall on the experience

Last year I had no idea what I was doing and my peppers didn’t make it taller than an inch. This year I still have no idea what I’m doing but now almost all of them are growing. I still have a lot of time until May next year when I can bring these guys outside. If they all them.

Any advice on these guys? At what point do I need to start cutting leaves? Cutting tops? How to identify which to throw in the compost vs. which to keep? At some point I’m going to run out of space, so I’ll have to do my best to weed out the weak.

I pruned this chilli plant back before winter and it has not come back with large leafy regrowth… is there anything I should be doing to get it going? Repotting with searles perhaps?

Weirdly in this state it has produced 1 flower which I’m thinking I should take off to help It focus on regrowth…

Was trying to add this image to a reply. This is after 8 hours at 165 F in an Instant Pot Vortex air fryer. When smashed inside a plastic bag, they really break apart into small flakes. This is a mix of Salsa-rific, Trinidad Moruga Scorpion peppers, and Thai bird’s eye chilis. It’s stupid hot, but good on 🍕.

My husband has always wanted to grow peppers and I got three different kinds growing for him that I have “hidden” with my apple and lemon trees. Issues, I had to put all the peppers ones closer together(I have them in paper towel rolls cause that’s all I had) for about two days and some white fuzzies started growing on the outside. I got them spaced back out, and a dehumidifier but the fuzzies are growing and are starting to get on the top of the dirt. I’ve had them planted for 3 weeks now and I’m JUST starting to see sprouts. I’m hoping to give my husband these plants as a Christmas gift so I would really hate to start over due to the mold or accidentally killing the to get rid of the mold. Anyone have any suggestions?
