Ghost (Bhut Jolokia) Chile Pepper
10 Seeds
Originating from Assam, India, the Ghost Chili was once known as the hottest chile in the world with over 1 million Scoville units. It is rumored that the name "Bhut", which translates to "ghost", was chosen because of the way the heat sneaks up on you when you eat them. Extremely hot. Handle seed and fruit with caution. 100 days from transplant. 10 seeds per packet.
IMPORTANT: Super hot chilis can be challenging to grow as they have a long germination period (21-28 days) and require long, hot growing seasons. See our article on starting peppers indoors and ensure that you have enough warm, frost-free days to allow for maturity and a sufficient harvest period.
