Dorset Naga...the worlds hottest chilli
Comments (66)I have two bhut jalokias and one naga dorsett growing, that I started on 2-1, and are already flowering - indoors, under HPS. The BJs are larger, but not by much, and the ND is the first one to have flowers that opened. Still have no idea when they will produce and ripen, but I started them very early, so I won't have to wait until Oct.! And I have a guy at work who is going to be the first to try them, that eats my gold bullets and makes comments like "I thought that was a gold bullet, not a cold bullet!" The red savinas definitely aren't what they used to be, and the testing confirmed my "unscientific" testing, though they used to be much hotter. One chocolate variety got him pretty well, but still wasn't what the RSs were years ago. I am hoping these will call his bluff... Here are the photos of their growth. It is strange, in that both loose many lower leaves, then where the leaves were, another stem is beginning to grow. Maybe this happens with habs out in my garden, but they are so packed together I don't notice, as when right in front of me like this (I usually don't start them this early). http://s24.photobucket.com/albums/c18/pepperhead212/Bhut%20Jalokia%20and%20Naga%20Dorsett/...See MoreMild to Hot Pepper for eating fresh or stir fry?
Comments (3)Why not try one of the mild hot peppers? I see them in all the stores now that sell peppers. They should be fine in a stir fry, giving a little heat without flaming your throat....See MorePurple Flash
Comments (3)Thanks guys. Yes romy6 it is an ornamental, I read somewhere they say you can eat it but it's flavor isn't very good. Now they've piqued my interest. ;-) Dave's says 5000-30000, but they seem to say that about a lot of peppers. I'm sorry the link was blocked habjolokia, I would have liked to have seen it... Thanks for looking, both of you! I must admit, it is a gorgeous plant. She grew it this last year and said it bloomed profusely but did not give a single fruit....See MoreWhy are my Vidalia onions hot?
Comments (10)Actually, I have had the same problem the past few months. In fact, one of the Vidalias I bought was soooo sharp that my husband ( in the next room) complained about the smell from the onion I was chopping. I ended up pitching part of it because it was making my entire freezer reek of onion. This has never happened before with any type of onion. I bag left over chopped onion in heavy vacuum seal bags to use later, I normally can't smell a thing through those bags. Now that I think back, it was one of the rounder rather than flat Vidalias. Most of the flat ones are soft lately. Joanne...See MoreBrennan (New Mexico 7a)
