New from KC MO

I am new here and new to gardening! First thing I chose to grow? Carolina Reapers. I am really enjoying it. I hope to learn a lot here.

Welcome to the forum, there is plenty here. You can ask specific questions, or use the 'search' function, top right, to look for information. I just entered Carolina Reapers and it brings up 3 pages of threads mentioning them, with yours as the first one

Welcome. I grew Carolina Reapers for a few years but found nobody wanted them. I don't like hot peppers and just grew them as a novelty. They are quite prolific.

I enjoy Spicy food but doubt I will find anyone who will want any. I am growing them as well for novelty. I did get my brother and dad to agree to each eat one with me. Should be fun.

Read something recently about cooking with chilli, apparently if you leave the stalk on and put them in whole you get the flavour, but very little of the heat, mentioned it to the missus and she confirmed it, "But take them out after, they are hot if you bite one."
