This Tombstone Ghost Pepper burns so hot and scares you so bad you’ll wish you were in Boothill! The heat is far more than you would expect. It keeps creeping up on you until shivers go down your spine and your face goes numb. Not even whiskey will save you! It has been said that when people survive the heat of this Outlaw Pepper they become Tombstone Legends! 

Pods are 3” long and 1” wide with red dented skin. The 30” tall plants will produce fruit all season. The flavor is fruity up front then spooky hot. This is not for scaredy cats!  Capsicum chinense/C.frutescens  (100 days)

Warning: Handling this pepper requires extreme caution. Wear hand, eye and breathing protection. 

Heat Level: Extreme, Severe and Intense.  Scoville Heat Units 1,000,000 

~ Packet contains 10 seeds. 

Like Ghosts? Make sure to try growing our other Ghost Pepper Seeds – we have a great selection of different colors and flavors of Bhut Jolokias including Chocolate, Yellow, Purple, White and Peach.

In early spring, start seeds indoors 8 weeks prior to warm nightly temperatures. Place the seeds in sterile media and cover 1/4” deep. Provide 85°F bottom heat, bright light and keep moist at all times. Seeds will germinate in 7 - 21 days. Transplant seedlings into pots and grow until there are 6 true leaves on the plant. Plant them directly into rich soil, 30” apart or into large 5 gallon containers. Harvest chiles when they are red and glowing.


All of our seeds are GMO-free.

Tombstone Ghost Pepper Seeds

Thank you for having the Ghost Pepper Seeds available. I bought them for a friend of mine.
He's going to grow them in a pot and then transplant them in his backyard. He's going to do the same with the Scorpion and Devil's Tongue Pepper Seeds. As you can see, he really likes hot peppers. Thank you. 😊
