Pretty good story. I haven't seen any Scoville tests for Jalapenos
lately and I had some in a bowl of Pho this week that were pretty hot.
Like Janie, most of my customers order the hot stuff. My Hot Hot Hot
Seed Collection outsells my Ornamental Collection by about 2 to 1. All
of the other collections trail behind these two.
I had some Red Savinas grown under perfect conditions and some Orange
Habaneros grown with benign neglect HPLC tested a few years ago. The
Orange Habs were much hotter. Stress = Heat.
