30 Red Jamaican Scotch Bonnet Seeds Super Hot Pepper Heirloom Non-GMO Super Hot, HARLEY SEEDS, Capsicum annuum, US Grown

I bought these Scotch Bonnet seeds thinking, “Hey, let’s grow some peppers. How cute!” Fast forward three months, and I’ve accidentally created a backyard volcano. These things sprouted with the confidence of a toddler who just learned the word “NO.” By week six, they were growing like they had something to prove — and oh, they proved it. Harvested my first pepper, took a bite thinking I was tough... and immediately saw through time. I sweat in languages I don’t speak. My ancestors called me to ask what I was thinking. They’re hot. Like “can’t-feel-my-lips-but-my-soul-is-awake” hot. Like “made-my-friend-cry-and-now-he-won’t-come-over” hot. Perfect. The plants are healthy, the yield is great, and I now live in mild fear of my own garden. 10/10, would recklessly plant again. Warning: Do not rub eyes. Or face. Or be alive near one without milk nearby.

No heat in the peppers and the plants were very susceptible to blight. I'm growing lots of different peppers so I'm confident I what I'm doing. These were the duds of the season for me.

Just planted

Mixed success in germinating seeds. I had about 86% success in germinating seedlings in winter here in North Florida. Once potted, they flowered in mid-March and are producing fruit which, as of early May, are changing color. I harvested the first fruit a few weeks ago. The fruit is large and delicious but has no heat at all. I had some minor problems with aphids but sprayed the plants with soapy water and some neem oil. This took care of the problems and all plants are doing well.

About half germinated but seem healthy so far

Good Germination and lots of peppers. Definitely worth it.

these sat in the kitchen drawer for a few months. I followed the soak then plant inside the house instruction and surprisingly all the seeds in the first batch germinated. I'll report back once I have fruit EDIT 10/12/2020 unfortunately these are not scotch bonnet, very mild and sweet. I grew up in Jamaica so was pretty disappointed.

This is a sweet red pepper with a bonnet shake. Zero heat. I nurtured these all season for nothing. Absolutely no spice level so it’s useless for Jamaican cooking. Don’t waste your time.
