Thread: Anyone have a source for FRESH Bhut Jolokia Peppers?

I am looking to get some shipped to me. I know that they are very tough to find but I figured maybe L4P with all its connections could hook a brotha up!

Gonna weaponize em? Naga jolokia at 800k+ scovilles is freaking nuts...I have a hard enough time digesting habaneros. Try an Indian food importer.

I just want some to eat.
Sure there are sauces and such made with them but I want the real deal unaltered.
The google ad below has the seeds! HAH! Damn you google! I want the peppers!!!!

BTW, if you try to grow these things you are in for a headache of epic proportions. They are a royal PITA to grow.

just emailed my friend, i thought he had bought some recently.

just received an email back...

almost impossible to find this time of year. you can get them here but only in season. Nobody will have fresh peppers until fall; they're notoriously hard to grow.

Thanks Mike. I was hoping to find someone that was growing hydroponically.
Out of 30 plants that I started last year I have 2 left that I limped through winter inside.
They are SUPER hard to grow!
Hopefully I will get some fruit out of the two that survived.

they are fall crops..we grow em.
let me get home and see what I got sitting around. (they stay fresh a while)

i hope you know what you are getting into. they are a death wish.
and thats comming from a guy who ate very spicy curry growing up.

Dude!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you can hook this up you will be the MAN!
I eat habanero like most folks eat jalapeno.
Also, I plan to video it.
