Bhut Jolokia Chocolate Ghost Pepper Seeds - Extreme Heat with a Sweet Twist

Unleash the fiery power of Bhut Jolokia Chocolate Ghost Pepper Seeds, a devilishly hot yet surprisingly sweet variant of the infamous ghost pepper. With a scorching 1,000,000 Scoville Heat Units, these peppers are not for the faint of heart-but their rich, smoky-sweet flavor makes them a must-have for heat-loving gardeners and culinary adventurers.

Why Grow Bhut Jolokia Chocolate Ghost Peppers?

These chocolate-brown pods (3" long and 1" wide) mature from green to a deep, earthy hue, boasting rough, dented skin that hints at their intense heat. Unlike its name suggests, this pepper doesn’t taste like candy-instead, it delivers a complex, smoky-sweet flavor that elevates salsas, hot sauces, and spicy dishes to legendary status.

Growing Your Ghost Peppers

Germination Tip: For best results, soak seeds overnight before planting. Start indoors 8 weeks before transplanting, sowing ¼" deep in sterile soil. Maintain 80-85°F bottom heat, bright light, and consistent moisture. Germination takes 14-21 days. Patience is key!

Once seedlings develop 6 true leaves, transplant them into rich soil (30" apart) or containers. These Capsicum chinense plants thrive with attentive care, rewarding you with a bountiful harvest in 110 days.

Warning: Handle with Extreme Caution

These peppers are EXTREMELY HOT. Always wear gloves, eye protection, and a mask when handling seeds or pods. Avoid touching your face, and wash hands thoroughly after contact.

What’s Included?

Each packet contains 10 GMO-free seeds (limit two per customer). Perfect for home growers, chili enthusiasts, or anyone daring enough to tame the heat!
