My Pepper Garden 2010 - Video 3 PLUS Eating a Caribbean Red Habanero

A beautiful Summer day. I decided to post an early update on my garden. I also figured that I'd record myself eating a ripe Caribbean Red Habanero picked right off one of my plants. Oh the hi-jinks!

I should mention that the Caribbean Red is a very hot Habanero. A typical Orange Hab is in the 150,000-300,000 Scoville Unit range. The Caribbean Red is around 400,000. I thought of trying an Orange Hab, but I already know from the many Orange Habs I've eaten that there wouldn't be much to see in a video. Besides, if I'm going to do this, better that the peppers come out of my own garden and not a grocery store.

It took about 20 minutes for the pain to subside. It's roughly 8 hours later now and my sense of taste is still "off." But it's all in the name of fun...isn't it?

@BlurryVideos2011 Hey! Thanks BlurryVideos! I have gotten the seeds trading through the mail. I received a box of different seed types last year and managed to grow about half of them I will try to grow the other half this year. I'm pretty happy with the heat level I've attained to this point. I'll probably stay here for another year. Maybe next year I'll be looking for something hotter, though. If you'd like me to send you some seeds let me know. Thanks for watching my videos!

@caliindica - And keeping it together - knowing the camera is going. Definitely the taste is awesome.

@caliindica - There are a lot of varieties of habaneros that you would probably like. As well, I always recommend hot paper lanterns as a really nice pepper with a moderate heat and slightly habanero-ish flavour. As a bonus, they are quick producers which are highly prolific - up to a hundred per plant. I also like fataliis - sweet and hot! Scotch Bonnets are great peppers as well. I think you would like all of those! Thanks again for watching!

If you can respond back...I want to start a pepper garden but think the Habanero is my limit on heat.I like it hot but not unbearably hot.I live here in So Cal and its always hot here year round great for pepper growing.What types of peppers would you recommend for some nice tasting w some decent heat but not quite Habanero hot??Any feedback would be awesome. Thanks dude.

@gruntkid10 - Hi Gruntkid. Sorry for the delay in this response. Habaneros are fairly easy to grow. I'd suggest picking the buds off the plants as it is growing, not letting the buds bloom until the plant is about 12 to 18' in height. They like lots of sun and not too much water. If you have any specific questions, please ask me and I promise I'll be a better correspondent. Thanks very much for watching my video and leaving this great comment. Much appreciated!
