Favorite Hot Pepper Varieties
 

Jalepeno M has always done well for us, with a large fraction eventually turning red, which are sweeter and more flavorful.

Tried Super Cayenne last year, a bit disappointing in both flavor and heat compared with Long Thin Cayenne that we've planted in the past.

Did not plan Tabasco last year, and I've forgotten what cultivar we've used in the past. Any suggestions?

If you've never grown your own cayenne and Tabasco peppers, you are missing something special.

I have never planted tabasco before, but will this year. I didn't realize there were different cultivar of tabasco.

I tried Tobasco last year. They did really well. Good flavor and heat.

Had a friend send me some seeds from Thailand, Bad Azz heat for such small peppers. Called thai bird peppers

Never tried to do tabasco peppers. Long thin cayenne and jalepenos are great. Bulgarian carrot peppers are also good if you can find them. They produce a pepper much like a jalepeno and are a beautiful carrot orange.
I want to grow ghost peppers but that will just be a pet project for fun.

I like tobascos and jalapeño. Planted tobasco last year and literally still have some hanging off the plants. Produced thousands.

Is that the little bush pepper that produces all kinds of colors of peppers? If it the same pepper I've always heard em called a birds eye pepper. Them tiny peppers pack a punch.

I think so

I am a cayene pepper fan, especially green. They grow like weeds produce lots and are a milder heat and big on flavor as some of those hot ones. The only comercial cayene pepper green sauce is made by cajun chef. If ya see it give it a try it aint real hot but big on fresh green flavor. I like it lots better than jalapenos

I had a few spicy bannana pepper plants last year that I really enjoyed.
They had just the right amount of sweetness and fire and produced like crazy late into fall.

Let me know if you'd like to try something hotter. My coworker developed the 7 Pot primo. It's a cross between a Trinidad 7 pot and Naga Morich. I think it testes at 1.46 million scoville. Keep in mind a jalopeno is roughly 5k and habs are roughly 250k.

No thanks i have some chipotle made w/ scorpions, thai peppers and scotch bonnets.
Don't think i want to put anything hotter into my system .:pissed:

Yeah you right. I ate a piece about the size of a pencil eraser. It didn't have any placenta material on it. The placenta is what you normally cut off the inside ribs of a bell pepper when cooking. This is where the heat is contained on hot peppers. Anyhow, it felt like someone poured battery acid into my mouth for about 10 minutes. Search YouTube, there are some guys eating the whole thing there.

I planted a pepper several years back that was in the jalepeno family. It had a lil kick and also sweet. I would stuff it then grill it. I want to plant some more of these but don't remember what they were called.

If they were big peppers probably poblanos. maybe seranos.

I planted Poblanos this year. Hoping to stuff em or use slices of them when making fajitas.
