FREE! Naga Jolokia Peppers

If you don't know what they are, look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naga_Jolokia_pepper

My crop is finally starting to ripen. I'd be happy to send a couple out to my friends on the forum over the next couple of weeks as they color up.

If you'd like a couple, please PM me your mailing address. OU812 is getting the first couple.

Be warned. Use gloves and use sparingly. One article said they're about 500 times hotter than a Jalapeno at around one million Scoville units.

I just might have to try some of them, I need to burn open my ulcer so I can take some time off of work.

In 2007, Guinness World Records certified the Naga Jolokia as the world's hottest chili pepper, 400 times hotter than Tabasco sauce.

Holy sheep dip!! 400 times hotter than Tabasco!!

Wonder how it would improve a Bloody Mary!!

In theory, these peppers make a habanero look like candy ;D

The peppers are going out tomorrow for those of you that have requested them. I might be able to throw a 'surprise' pepper in there too.

Please be careful with them. Gloves are a must. Use them sparingly. Enjoy.

Probably but I have no experience there. They're slow growers so you should start them indoors in mid-Feb. Once I got them outside in June in an Earthbox, they really took off but they're pretty slow to ripen in our area.

The peppers don't have many seeds. Just handle with care.

Sorry about your workers Icerat4. ;D ;D

The peppers are native to India. They dry 'em, grind 'em and put them in a spray or grenade. They're used for crowd control.
