You know my NK seeds did the same thing. Having never grown nor tasted the
red savina before I had nothing to compare it to. I just thought the red
savina was overhyped based on the ones I grew. I've also gotten some
mislabled and poorly germinating seed from other places small and large
alike so I guess it's kind of a crap shoot.

John,

I'd order seeds from a place that you know from recommendations has good
seed.

My Red Savina seeds were purchased at Wally*World and packaged by Northrop
King.  The resulting pods looked like Red Savina, but were definitely NOT
very hot.  I had jalapeņos that were hotter.

Good luck,
