Possibly the world's hottest pepper!
This is an extremely hot Scorpion pepper created and developed by the Italian growing organization known as AIASP. It is over 5 years old as of 2015 and how they made it is unknown. The Apocalypse Scorpion has nice fruity tones and rivals the heat of any other so called superhot pepper. There are no official tests but many say that it blows away the Carolina Reaper!
Plants reach 4 feet tall and produce an abundance of fiery peppers.
SOWING ADVICES: Capsicum chinense chilies germinate and grow best when soil temperatures are above 29/30°C. In most regions of the country, peppers should be started indoors and then transplanted outdoors as the weather warms. Sow peppers indoors 6-8 weeks before transplanting. Plant seeds at a depth of ¼ inch and make sure the soil remains warm throughout the germination period.
