Hot Chillies (forum)

Michael starts with ...
Hi Evelyn - ( From a previous post about chillies )

If you are still interested I can send you some Orange Habanero chillies and either a Naga Morich or Bhut Jolokia ( I can't tell the difference between the two ). I also have the Dorset Naga but have given it all away. It's in flower at the moment though. You can collect the seeds from the chillies and plant it yourself. These chillies are extremely rare especially the Bhut/Naga and Dorset. People are selling the seeds on Ebay for like a dollar a seed.

Does anyone have any of the following chillies they would like to swap with me? I have Red ,Orange and Chocolate Habanero, White Peruvian Habanero ,Brazilian Starfish,Dorset Naga , either a Naga Morich or Bhut Jolokia .

I am after the Trinidad Scorpion , 7 Pod/Pot or Fatali chillies. I am looking to swap fresh pods not seeds.

Hi Michael,
Thankyou, that would be great. How do I go about doing it. Can you give me your phone number or mine to you? I am happy to reimburse expenses. Or my email address here? Would you like any Rocoto chilli seeds, garlic chives seeds or plants or Rue plants. Wakely is not too far away for me to deliver.
Cheers Evelyn

Hi Evelyn,
Just send me your details to my email address " michaeldang@mail.com ".No need to reimburse me for the costs. I just hope we are allow to send fresh chillies my mail. I only have a few chillies left but you can start propagating the seeds first( I will send you next week the Orange Habanero and Naga Morich first). I have been giving it away to all my neighbours,family and friends for them to taste and try growing for themselves. My next batch of pods should be ready in about 2 months time and by then I should have plenty of Dorset Naga,Red Habanero ,Scotch Bonnet and Chocolate Habnaneros . I will send you these chillies in due time

Hi Michael,

I have some 7 Pot and Trinidad Scorpion seeds if you want some?

I'm growing around 120 or so chilli plants this year, from about 30 - 40 different varieties.

Hi MiLK_Man,

Thanks for the kind offer but I'm okay for now. Have you harvest any of the 7 Pods or Trinidad Scorpion pods yet ? If so can you upload some pictures. Depending on who you speak to but some say the 7 Pods and Trinidad Scorpion are hotter then the Bhuts. My range of chilli plants did not fair so well this winter in Sydney planted in the ground. First my Naga's and Orange Habanero's got attack by some sort of egg laying moths which infected every pod with maggots. Then secondly the plants were almost killed off by frost bite.
If you like talking about hot peppers than the below website is a pretty good forum that I would recommend.

The green tail on that Trinidad Scorpion specimen makes it look all the more formidable. ;) Very nice, Milk Man. and 120 chilli plants, impressive.. what do you do with the surplus produce?

Just scored as few seeds of this trinidad scorpion one myself, look forward to growing them this spring.

Amanda, it's appearance is telling you something.
The heat level is nuclear.
It is reckoned by some in the know to be even hotter than the now notorious naga- Bhut Jolokia. so it could be the hottest of all.

Alot of people don't realise there are hundreds of different chilli types out there . The normally bought chillies from the shops like the birds eye and Thai chillies are like 7 -8 / 10 in heat level. The Trinidad Scorpions and Bhut Jolokia's are 10+++ and is not for the faint hearted.Before you try the super nuclear hots you should at least be able to handle chillies from the habanero family.( Use to be the standard measure of super hot chillies).

Can someone confirm if these are in fact the real Bhut Jolokias?
I bought the seed off Ebay last year and just sometimes it crosses my mind just how authentic some of the sellers really are.
I thought I had a better pic, hope this one gives a reasonable representation.

I can vouch for www.sgtpepper.com.au as I have been to his place near Canberra and saw his chilli collections. I would also recommend http://www.thehippyseedcompany.com/ as I have aslo been to his place on the Central coast. Neil from the Hippy Seed Company is a real chilli fanatic and his seeds would be close to 100% success rate .

Brendan, Steven,

You folks are funny farmers . LMAO


A good way to get rid of the hot oil chilli on your hands if you were handling it is, washes your hands in soap, rinses, then soak your hand in milk or yogurt for a good 5 minutes, then rerinse your hands with water, that will get rid of the hot stingness from it.
So you don't have to worry about the after effect just in case you might scratch your face or whatever have you.

I picked most of my Butch Ts for the market wearing a disposable glove on the left hand for holding the fruit while cutting stalks with bare right hand! they sold well at 2 for $3 & my NO RESPONSIBILITY warning signs stopped anyone from trying to be a hero, thank god! I was imagining some idiot writhing on the bitumen after taking a bite!

I found some Bhut jolokia in my garden (didn't know I had them until they fruited). Must have been Mike's at one stage. It's hot. SG I usually pulled my chillies off with a bit of stem (sometimes leaves too) attached. They like the 'pruning'.
