How hot is a Naga Jolokia pepper?
1,041,000 Scoville units
Is Naga Jolokia the same as ghost pepper?
Until 2007, the Naga Jolokia (also called Bhut Jolokia or Ghost Pepper) had the 'honour' of being the world's hottest pepper. On the Scoville scale, which indicates hotness, the number of units actually exceeded one million. Nature's Pride's 'hot scale' awards the pepper with a score of 10 out of 10.

It seems I'm not too far away from the hottest chilli in the world 😍🔥
Yeah there are a few that have just taken to the vertical heights for whatever reason. They've started budding now, difficult to see a fair number of them in the pic though.
I need to get them all out at the weekend, spray them again and get some of them supported.
I'm about a week or two behind, gave my rents a few and they've got a better garden for the sun so they've done loads better than I have, I've just got volume on my side atm
Edit - Yup the bhuts are hottens, need to be treated with caution!

I could eat anything hot a few years ago, even those bottles of chilli liquid that say do not ingest, but recently I'm starting to feel the heat!Give it a go, see what ya think
I'm not sure it's you. I think dishes have generally gotten hotter over the years. A vindaloo from the 80s is probably madras at best these days
Agreed, as a country we have caught up with the rest of the world and things aren't spiced down like they used to be.

I do think it is me, I cook from scratch. I don't use as many chillis as I use to in my thirties.
On a funny side note, my eldest bought some of that stupidly hot chilli chocolate (like £10 for 20g) and took it to school and him and his mates ended up being sick in class after eating it 🤣 now his tolerance to spicy is very low.

Yeah, it's how it got a bit out of control, I thought I'd fail more, and didn't.... then variety wise I wanted to mix it up. I'll probably do some hot sauces and end up freezing the rest.
Think I had 10 on the go in the end...

I've had a decent success rate starting them on a heat mat. They still take a few weeks to germinate.
