BTW the pix of PI281317 are wild.. keep em comin. I suspect the full grown pod will be looking like a pug dog! A tasty dog, I hope.
What's the scoop on Tasmanian Black, tastewise? Is it good black? How about in the red?

The spider is perched on a Turk's Cap.
The Tasmanian Blacks that I tried black had a somewhat grassy jalapeno taste, with a heat level on par with a good warmer jalapeno, I would guess about 5,000 Scoville. Red they are really nice, kind of like a red jalapeno but thinner fleshed and not as sweet. I'll grow these again next year for sure!
Here's one of my Ghost peppers that looks like it's going through a Rastafarian stage (green, yellow, and red).
