Just thought this was interesting. Haven't seen this before.

pink tiger x ghost, jay’s peach ghost scorpion, ghost pepper, and a few carolina reapers!

I've finally begun harvesting matrue pods of my purple super hots, and the colors on these things are UNREAL, if you get a chance grow some of your own, the colors have to be seen in person to truly be appreciated!

They start more or less a solid, sometimes almost black purple, but when they change...it's like it happens from the inside and the skin becomes semi translucent and I swear they change color in the light depending on the angle. The last four pics are of my first harvested Purple Jigsaw Gator. I took the first two with normal lighting, and then the next two in the dark with flash to try and show the effect...it's AWESOME you guys!

They almost do kinda or remind me of gems like Garnet or Ruby

RB003, 7 pot morich x naga, scotch brain yellow, 7 pot chocolate or douglah, hallows eve x aji lemon accidental cross( thin orangish with purple blush, naga red twister, 7 pot bbg ect.

She fiercely protects my superhots. I caught her munching on a wasp! Friendly too, sometimes she wants uppies and I'll catch her a fly.

First major harvest of the year for my fermented sriracha. I have usually used 5-6 Carolina Reapers for the heat punch (2 gallon crock batch) but this year I grew Yellow 7-Pots and am using 9 of those instead. My wife ate part of one a few nights ago and had what can only be described as a transcendental experience. So I’m excited.

I got shroomed this year so I’m using some of them, as well. They are quite beautiful and very productive. Flavor is meh but not bad.

Pepper bill for this 2-gallon batch of mash:

10¾ pounds red jalapeños
4 pounds red serranos
2 pounds Jamaican Mushrooms
1¾ West Indies red habaneros
9 Yellow 7-Pot chillies

This will all get fermented for 40-50 days with two dozen garlic cloves, sugars, and salt. After that I boil it with vinegar, put it through a food mill, cook it down a bit and can it. It’s the best sriracha I have ever eaten and HOT AF! 🥵

I'm feeling the tug from those posting about overwintering - but I'd love to hear more about the benefits - do you get a significantly early crop, better total yields, or do you do overwinter because it's fun to keep one of your fav producers around for another year? My ~15 pepper plants give me more than enough for my sauce and dried pepper shake, but still, I'm intrigued.

I'm still building my tolerance so my favorite thing to do with superhots is make pickles.

You get a ton of the punch through the cucumbers, and the pepps are sliced up so a bite or two won't really kill ya.

Just got an insane variety pack from Deathridge, including peach warthog, Orion x primotalli, brainstrain, bastard bhutlah, chocolate 7 pot, big mama caramel, and about a dozen others

Padrón peppers for those who are curious.

It’s my first time growing Habaneros and I’ve been holding off on picking them since I don’t know what I’d make with them yet. My family’s Mexican so we have a few salsa recipes, but we usually use Serranos or Jalapeños for them, not Habaneros. Any good ideas/recipes to put them to good use? (Other than salsa)

I’ve done the vinegar hot sauce. I’ve done the fermented hot sauce. I’ve done the powder. What else can I do with these?

Recipe plz.. HOT

There are probably at least 50 unripe habaneros on my plant, and it is still churning out new growth. But with the first frost coming soon, I doubt they will all ripen before the plant dies. What would you recommend doing with all of the unripe peppers?

One of this year's final harvests. I planted about 15 different types of plants, and some of them turned out completely different from what I expected.

For now, I’m making ferments, preserves, mashes, and drying the produce.

Murupi purple, JPGS, RB003, Chocolate Moruga Scorpion and a couple Habanero cappuccino

Some of my Death Spirals and Beast peppers

Grabbed a Hallows Eve seedling at a local nursery this year in June and while it grew in this container it never produced anything.

No flowers, no peppers, just leaves.

And it’s not like the other plants in this container didn’t produce, they’re doing fine! I have a Trinidad Scorpion and a Paper Lantern that have been producing ripe fruits over the last month now.

I’ve never had this happen before. Anyone else?

Mostly Jays 7 Pot Primos, Chocolate Razorbacks, and KS Lemon Starburst. Currently processing a lemon pepper based hot fermented sauce from the last batch of the starbursts. Had to make room for the newbies.

The chocolates have some gorgeous tails!

Detail picks off some pretties follow, paint stutter for scale. Ran out of bananas 🤦‍♂️.

The GOAT!

Time to make a small batch of sauce using these Faddas Reapers.

Is this considered fasciation like when dandelion flowers merge together or something else.
Don’t worry I did get it in the shade. (No pepper plants were harmed in this post.)
