Carolina Reaper Chilli Chocolate Bar - 2.5% Carolina Reaper Chilli 100g *Sale*

Product Information

This means that eating an equally large dragon’s breath pepper would be like eating a highly spicy Carolina reaper and a habanero. Yikes. There is a chance when growing Carolina Reapers indoors that you may need to assist in pollination to ensure that the peppers ripen properly. To do so, gently move your finger or a soft paint brush along the stems of the peppers. This will release the pollen and allow it to settle on other pepper plants. Pepper X has officially dethroned the Carolina reaper as the world’s hottest chili pepper (according to Guinness World Records). The pepper tested an average of over 2.6 million Scovilles, more than 1 million more than the reaper. However, Pepper X has been nothing but controversial since this announcement.

Personally speaking, I enjoy some heat with a medium amount of burn and sting in it. I like to feel it and gasp from its heat but not so much that I want more heat, more pain and not be able to taste my food. Despite the fact that the Chocolate Bhutlah Scoville doesn’t officially rank as high as the Carolina Reaper, many people say it’s one of the hottest chillies they’ve ever eaten. Why Does This Pepper Taste Hotter? Use potting soil: Use healthy and sterile potting soil with a pH balance of roughly 6.5 to ensure healthy growth. Make sure the potting soil drains well and will not accumulate too much water which drown the plant.

The pepper itself also looks unique, given its small and wide stature. They have a distinct, scorpion-like tail at the end of the pepper. Most are red, but you can find varieties in other colors like yellow or peach. In the case of Carolina Reapers and a few select other peppers, the pepper can go through a natural darkening process before ripening fully, where they start off green, but then turn a purplish hue before turning their mature red color. To topple the Carolina Reaper and claim the title of the hottest pepper in the world, the Chocolate Bhutlah should have a higher SHU and hold it for generations. Like most 7 Pots (and other super-hots) there’s a sweetness – almost floral – to the chili. That’s paired with the subtle earthiness you typically get from chocolate varieties of different peppers (like the chocolate habanero). You can also get hints of fruitiness and smokiness from the flavor, too. But, of course, the spiciness is so great with the Chocolate Bhutlah that most won’t ever get to the flavor. Cooking with Chocolate Bhutlah Sow the seeds: Plant the seeds about ⅛ inch deep in the soil or potting mix. Dampen the soil with water, but only enough to make sure it’s not dry.

To grow Carolina Reapers, the optimal soil has a pH of around 6.5. This is right around the middle of the pH scale, with a slightly acidic tilt. The majority of peppers grow best at this acidic level. When it has already been scientifically proven that this hot pepper is the hottest pepper in the world, then, if you’re growing it, you can claim huge bragging rights!The Hottest Peppers In The World: We dive into the top end of the Scoville scale to compare the extreme chilies there. Carolina Reaper plants should receive about two inches of water per week, spread throughout multiple days. Ensure that the soil is not drying out or retaining a lot of water. Spreading the two inches throughout the week will help keep a healthy environment for plant growth. Many of these are harmless, but when they appear in large numbers, any pest can cause growth or health issues for your Carolina Reaper plants. Aphids, in particular, commonly carry diseases which can harm or even kill your pepper plants. To prevent pests, plant the seeds far enough apart from other plants that they are not touching, and keep your garden weed free. The ripening of Carolina Reapers should be a hands-off process. Once the pepper has fruited, it is likely that it will survive and be healthy, so give it the time it needs to fully ripen on the plant. If a frost is coming, consider moving the plant indoors in a large, 5-gallon container to let the ripening process continue.
