This has produced some of the hottest peppers i have ever tasted and no store bought pepper can compare. I currently have Anahiem Chiles that will give any store bought serrano a run for its money.

Greetings C-H brethren,
The post quoted above raised a question in my mind that I don't recall ever seeing addressed; although I am still about 800 posts behind at the moment. (Not all C-H.)
The question:
We have seen numerous posts / articles / etc. regarding stressing plants to increase the pungency of the fruit, but I don't recall anyone ever mentioning if there is any effect on the flavor. Anyone out there see something I might have missed? Not that I intend to purposely stress my plants, since I am somewhat of a C-H moderate, but I am curious...
Thanks,
