Although it has clocked in at 2 million SHUs at its most potent, on average the peppers are in the 1.2 million Scoville heat unit range. The small, puckered fruits mature from green through orange and then to a deep red, at which point the flavour is the most refined and fruity. This species of pepper can be grown as a perennial in warmer climates (or heated greenhouses) or brought inside over winter. To mature in most regions, they will need to be grown with protection for the added heat and to lengthen the growing season. Can be grown in containers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSuper-hot peppers can be somewhat challenging to grow. The seeds can be difficult to germinate, and they need a long, hot season to produce fruit. Start indoors early and use bottom heat and seedling domes to create the warm, humid conditions they need to germinate. Be patient as germination may take 21-28 days or longer, even under ideal conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003ePlease use extreme caution when handling the seeds and fruits!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e[description action=\"end\"][quickfacts action=\"start quickfacts\"]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAverages 1.2 million Scoville heat units\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMatures in 120 days\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOpen pollinated seeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e[quickfacts action=\"end quickfacts\"]\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seedsplant","offers":[{"title":"10 seeds","offer_id":51777411023165,"sku":"PP692A","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"25 seeds","offer_id":51777411055933,"sku":"PP692B","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50 seeds","offer_id":51777411088701,"sku":"PP692C","price":15.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250 seeds","offer_id":51777411121469,"sku":"PP692D","price":68.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1000 seeds","offer_id":51777411154237,"sku":"PP692E","price":178.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0107\/1487\/3956\/files\/PP692-Trinidad-Maruga-Scropion-0X7A4860.jpg?v=1780295620","url":"https:\/\/seedsplant.com\/products\/trinidad-moruga-scorpion","provider":"Seedsplant","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
