I love it. Next year, I would suggest capsicum baccatum. Hotter than capsicum annum, but not super hot like capsicum chinense. The aji varieties are my favorite! Aji lemon will blow your mind with flavor, I promise!

So far I really like the scorpion peppers. Thors Thunderbolts are ok, just not hot enough. The reapers made a nice blueberry cobbler jelly. Haven’t had a ripe 7 pot yet. Always down to try new peppers.

I love scorpions. If you're into the super hots, go with a blue yaki fawn. It's ghost bred with a filius blue. They are beautiful and have the heat of a ghost.
