Very accurate history. Thank you Pepper Geek! :) -Jukka ”Fatalii”
Great to hear that - thanks for stopping by!
Growing mine indoors, bought from you, Jukka.
Once I get my indoor grow setup running I think these will be my first fancy pepper grow
My first three seedlings just sprouted and I'm SO EXCITED!
I'm hoping our long summer will allow enough time for them to fully ripen!
what zone do you live in and how long did they take to sprout? thanks in advance. oh and how are they doing now?
These peppers are so beautiful, the look like blown glass!
A lovely specimen. Plants are definitely sprawlers too, so you want large containers and they love to eat! So, keep pumping the nutrients throughout the season and you'll get an earlier harvest, for longer and won't have all that chlorosis. Well done!
Thanks! The chlorosis is due to the temperature drop here in New England - but maybe needed more nutrients as well - I’ll try more frequent feeding next year 👍🏻
I've got some pepper seeds I'm going to retry to germinate them but they're from Cuba they look like habanero but they're not hot like habanero if you want I can send you some
I saw this video when it first came out. It was because of the enticing description of the taste of this pepper that I bought SRS and SRP seeds. The Stripey is truely phenomenal. I think it's easily my favorite pepper ever! Unfortunately the "Sugar Rush Peach" seeds I received from a seller in Finland were not actually SRP. They were a peach of some sort, but they were more like a cayenne in size and shape. And after 9 months of growth, I've still only had one come to color. I have another seller sending me some SRP seeds for next year though. I look forward to trying them next summer.
I grew Sugar Rush Peach for the first time this year. LOVE THEM❤❤
Growing these this year, super excited!
Been growing the sugar rush peach the past 2 years and love them, but did not know about these. Hopefully i can find some for next years season.
Jimmy pickles has them as well, that is where I picked up a pack. Going to grow them here in the next season.
I got mine from Jimmy Pickles too.
Awesome pepper and great description of the pepper in its entirety
Awesome video!! It truly is a unique variety that everyone should grow. My favorite pepper I’ve grown so far
Thanks! Yep, I'm sure this one will be a big seller in years to come
It's so beautiful, I want one ❤
Thank you for all the great and informative videos here
Grow some! You're very welcome :)
I grew them this year too, got them from Belgium and can't wait for them to fully ripen, but it's not long anymore :D Greetings from Germany
Hallo Frau Mimi, würden Sie bitte ein paar samen verkaufen? Ich komme nirgend wohin.Danke🌹Miroslav.
Great looking pepper! I must locate seeds for next season! 🤙🏾
Highly recommend! Slow to produce but definitely a spectacle.
What a beautiful pepper, wow! It looks like an orange creamcicle, I don't even know how to describe it
I just ordered mine. Thanks for the link.
Wow i'm so grateful for having watched this video the day it was released. I immediately bought 2 packets from fatalii in Finland and now they are out of stock. I could have bought from a couple of vendors in USA but it's not the same as buying from the original Jukka.
Glad to hear you got your hands on some seeds!
Growing confetti sweet peppers and they are really striking but do ripen to a full red. Really nice getting them halfway to red when they are striped with a reddish blush growing up from the base.
Beautiful! Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Oh man, I had these started this year but I lost them to bugs with the rest of my original grow. I am happy to see they worked out for you! This is seriously one of the coolest peppers out there!! New to the channel and I am really enjoying it, keep it up!
Ah that's too bad - our sugar rush plants also seemed to have some pest damage/fungal issues, but a good number of the pods made it out unscathed. Better luck next year!
I was literally cleaning this variety when you posted this lol. This varietie is now a staple.
Yep, there will be one every year here :)
It is an amazing pepper. It was grown in the US for a couple years before I got a hold of them and sent some to Chris. I also had the sugar rush stripe cross with my aji tangerine and that cross has come out with stripes consistently in the f2 so I'll be growing it again next year.
Wow! Would love to see a picture of that cross - checking your Insta now 😁
Those are beautiful!!!
Thanks man, they’ll be in my greenhouse next summer. 😀👍🏻
I want some of these. Fascinating trait.
Beautiful peppers 😊
I got a 10 pack of these seeds too late to start this year. I am SO EXCITED to grow them next year!
Same!!!
Same.
Where did you get them?
@@jaydenfriesen
I got mine from Jimmy Pickles.
Fataliiseeds.net
Yup, first time growing them this year. 2 plants with plenty of fruit. Just waiting for then to ripen.
I'm growing these this year and I have tons of pods on all 3 plants and yes they are taking forever to ripen. Just now getting a little color on a couple pods out of hundreds
Veeery nice! Thanks for the review. I only just heard about this pepper yesterday and just bought some seeds 30 minutes ago. I'm very excited to grow this pepper. Last year I was searching for a fruity and mildly hot orange chilie and bought seeds from 2 different companys and both companys chilies failed to deliver what I was searching for. I'm hoping this pepper will deliver that sweet fruity hot flavor AND a very attractive pepper as well. Thanks again. Best regards! 😁
Beautiful little pepper. I love that aloha pepper too, I hope some day it can be a stable pepper that will be true to the seed. In the meantime, now I want to grow this Sugar rush stripey
Still waiting for my sugar rush peach to ripen. Here in MA, we could get frost anytime now. Got to put them under cover to give them a little more time.
Love the video.
Thanks glad you enjoyed!
My son shared a Sugar Rush Stripey plant with me and it is really producing!! Would love a video on how best to preserve seeds for use next season. Would definitely like to try growing these again!!
Great idea :)
I grew sugar rush peach this year. Long story short, the plant took some abuse but bounced back several times. It is loaded with peppers, and I am getting beautiful peppers that are a nice orange and taste fruity.
I was expecting them to have heat. Mine had none.
That is really unusual -- I've eaten a fair number of Sugar Rush peppers (Red and Peach) anywhere from green to fully ripe, and they have been consistently "medium hot" (Cayenne level) or a bit above. The one exception was one bush that had peppers that looked more like Aji Strawberry Drop, and were not hot and not particularly tasty; but I suspect it was just a stray seed from another variety.
@@davidniemi6553 - definitely a bush. The plant is about 18 inches tall and wide. I have saved seed and will try again next year. Not sure about seed reliability as these came from etsy. However the lemon drop peppers from the same seller were exactly what I expected.
That’s weird they weren’t hot. I made a hot sauce with my SRP that had a flavor reminiscent of horseradish which is most definitely a hot quality.
This pepper is SO pretty that I'd love to grow it but I have no idea how to get my hands on it here in the Caribbean 🙁 I'd also like to try the Jimmy Nardello. Ah...dreams! Thanks for the content and Happy Peppering!
Beautifull!
Wow cool. I would like to start growing a couple of these this winter. I wonder how many years I can keep one plant alive. That would be awesome starting with a well-developed plant full of blossoms at the beginning of Spring🥳
Definitely! It seems like most of our baccatum plants don’t like cold at all, but we may try overwintering this one
I just saw some peppers at Home Depot that are pretty similar to these but they call them candy cane peppers. They look really cool I’m thinking of picking some up.
Those are striped, but will ripen to a solid color (I believe red). These actually ripen to striped, which is what makes them special. Also, the candy cane is a sweet pepper (no heat)
My sugar rush peach stripe seeds were actually bell peppers!
Bummer :(
Got my seeds from Jimmy Pickles and will be growing them next spring.
I enjoyed its nice
yeah this year my ajis took ages.. :D
I would love to have a couple of this sugar rush pepper
Bet you can do a Hot Pepper Jelly video, So get to it.
Thanks again as you love my peppers 💝
I was so excited for the sugar rush peach, I did like 6 plants this year. I finally got one plant that had produced, and I let them stay on to ripen. It seemed to be taking a long time to ripen (about a month after being a good size). Finally I tried one. Nope, it's still just a vegetal flavour. So I waited probably another month, tried again, still just a vegetal flavor. They are quite hot, and there is a little bit of sweetness, but red bell peppers are sweeter than what I got. I was quite disappointed with my results.
Hmm, well I guess they aren't quite as sweet as a red bell, but they should take on a more fruity flavor as they mature. SRP/stripey always take their sweet time ripening though.
Such an interesting subject this pepper growing. I'm new to it but have a poly with around 20 plants in pots with 2 varieties I grew with seeds. Bird's eye and Red Habanero. Half way through Spring here in New Zealand and going well. Have been learning so much from your channel. Cheers 😎👍
That is great! Cheers 👋
Woo Hoo 1000 likes👏
Very nice pepper. Would like to try in my greenhouse.
Go for it!
Would like to meet you.. You know your peppers Sir and I am a Senior but love my peppers.
Have you ever tried or grown the Aji Panca? I've been growing the Aji Amarillo in pots for around 3 years now, and last year tried ty he Panca. This year I tired the seeds from the stems that were not isolated, and ended up with some very odd looking plants and fruits, very long fruits with a hint of the flair at the bottom classic of Amarillo, all sugar rush, and the lemon drop. They curve into what looks like a fish hook at the very end! Super exciting! Taking forever to ripen.
Sounds great - nope haven't tried the Panca. We grew quite a few baccatums this year - ahuachapan, pineapple, amarillo, starfish, and fantasy white - all great plants!
So what can I use the branches of the peppers plant after I winterize them
Will you guys ever sell or share your Sugar Rush Stripey seeds? I tried to purchase them from your contact and was able to. I’d love to, so that we can continue to share and grow the variety…
So excited you posted this video!! I am a 1st time gardener this year & have 3 Sugar Rush Stripey plants in buckets...bought 11 seeds on Amazon. Was happy 3 germinated! The plants look great, I have TONS of peppers growing...& yup, they're large but still greenish! I'm worried because I potted them on 7/1. I live in Missouri & October weather is SOON going to make the plants very sad! Can I bring them indoors under grow lights so the peppers will ripen? Might be a dumb question...
Oh of course you can - I would just do something to avoid pests coming inside with the plants. Apparently a dilutey hydrogen peroxide into the soil can safely kill fungus gnats/larvate, but aphids on the leaves should also be killed first
@@PepperGeek Thank you! 💓🌶
I have a grow tent with another spot in it for a plant (about a 3.5 foot clearance). Do Baccatum pepper plants that love to grow tall deal well with being topped to prevent them from growing too tall? These look pretty nice to grow.
Yes, they can be pruned to fit your space
Can you make a video for picking the right container size for the size of pepper? This is something I’m always battling with. I dont have a raised or in ground bed so grow bags and pots are my solution

th-cam.com/video/ta7ytxHAT7w/w-d-xo.html hope this helps!
I just got some striped seeds and Since they take so long to mature, should I start seeds in late winter and then set out after frost has passed? Im in zone 9a, Northern California .
Will you be making any new vids or updates on bonchis? We’ve been blessed with some warm weather this week and I want to turn some of my plants to bonchis.
Hm, wasn’t planning on it this year, but maybe..have to think about it. You should try it though!
Just ordered these from Fatalii!
Nice! It’ll be worth it
@@PepperGeek The seeds germinated super quick and now the lil' Stripeys are chilling under a grow light. 😊
colby jack cheese
thumnbs up
hello, why do the tips of the sugar rush stripey get soft? I have the same problem too!! Thank you
Well, darn. I'd like to try them, but my growing season is far too short for this variety. I'd love to see a cross that results in a shorter season, though.
All the baccatums we grew this year took a long time to fully ripen, but these were the longest
Continue indoors under a grow light, some plants are worth it 😃
I'm trying to grow this pepper indoors right now thank you for this video!
Great! We might overwinter our big plant
@@PepperGeek i would love to see that! im going to try and add the sugar rush stripey pepper to meals. im in love with the look and flavor .
I just got my first flower bud on my reaper plant and have a ton of small pods growing.. its now dropping below 50°F. I am gonna wrap the blant to winter it... will this still produce a harvest?
Depends on the conditions indoors - you can just wait till next season to get pods or try indoors with a light
I've got some peppers from Cuba that are sweet but not hot they look like a habanero if you want I can send you some
Would you mind sharing the size of the pot you grew the stripey in?
That was a 7 gallon grow bag
I have heard that propagating chili with the harvested seeds no longer have stripes but should be completely orange.
Not for this variety
I'm currently growing a stripey plant, where can I get one of those t shirts?
A question about over wintering, I cut my pepper plants back, and brought them inside, does it hurt that they are trying to grow new branches already, or should I cut those off the plant as well?
Good question - we let them grow a bit and then take them off. Don't want to cut them too early to avoid damaging the main stem/nodes.
@@PepperGeek thanks for the info, your channel has been extremely helpful.
I'm curious about all the yellow leaves on your Sugar Rush Stripey plants. Is that just the onset of fall, a lack of nitrogen, or something else? I am noticing similar yellowing on some of my pepper plants the last few weeks, but not all, and usually more on the lower leaves. I'm in zone 7a so probably slightly warmer than your location; first frost is almost always in November.
I have both Sugar Rush Red and Peach this year. Do you notice much difference in taste between those two and with Stripey?
Yes, we've been having nights in the 40sF - All our plants are looking similar now. Up until about a month ago the plant was lush and green!
I don't notice much difference between this and the peach - same great crunch and sweet, slightly vegetal/fresh flavor
Hey Geeks! Quick question, I'm either growing a jalapeno or a ghost, I do believe it's the Ghost I planted months ago based on the shape and what not, but my question is, one of my peppers has a two tone going on almost like the pepper has a belt (different shade of green than the rest of the pepper) but it's not rotten or anything. Is that normal/rare or not supposed to happen?
Edit: the Sugar Rush peppers look awesome!
We see all sorts of anomalies - could just be a conditional thing. Sometimes we see odd ripening patterns, especially late in the season
@@PepperGeek fair enough, I'll keep an eye on my special pepper and keep you guys updated, thanks!🙏
Hi. I can’t seem to find a place to buy a few seeds to grow next season this sugar rush stripey. Any recommendations. I grow in my backyard, so I don’t need a lot.
fataliiseeds.net
Is there anywhere in the states that have these seeds available. The US requires an importer permit for individuals purchasing seeds from overseas.
Try jppepperseeds.com
Kind of like Aji Amarillo? Will they over winter?
I believe so - one way to find out!
Nice video. Why don’t the Aloha peppers make the same pepper from the seeds? Thanks
Something to do with the genetic trait, this one can be carried down via sexual reproduction while the aloha trait must be cloned/propagated asexually to keep the striped trait
its because its a hybrid plant, if you let it pollinate itself its going to have very different genetic makeup compared to the original hybrid because its genes are mixed up during sexual reproduction. In theory it is possible for the aloha pepper to make the same pepper from seed but it is a very low chance
Thank you, that’s really bizarre. I’d imagine it could be stabilized.
How hot is it and how long does it take to grow a pepper?
Both of those questions were answered in the video.
We live in Milwaukee, WI.. zone 5 .. our growing season is typically shorter than 6 months required to fully ripen. How cold tolerant is the sugar rush stripey? I am assuming I would need to start them inside earlier to get a much needed head start.
Yes, we started this plant indoors on March 1st and it still has many unripe pods here in zone 6a
@@PepperGeek thanks for the heads up.
I’m in 6, started them way late and still got ripe pods before end of season. Such an awesome plant the stalk has striping on it too.
@@whydoineedahandle269 thanks Ian... sounds like it may on the list for next spring. 😀
I live in Wisconsin too. Planting in early February should give you enough time.
Hallo,I would like to order this Sugar Rush Stripey pepper.Do you shipment to the Czech republic or tell me the right place I should write.Thank you Mira
too much time for the peppers to ripen, translates to how many months ?
Depends how large you let the plant grow. If you keep it small you may get ripe pods in 5 months from planting, ours weren’t ripe until 6 or so months from sowing seeds since the plant was in a big container
@@PepperGeek that's a lot. Fortunately i live in Greece and i got time. Thank you !
Other than Fataliiseeds does anyone have a U.S link the recommend? I tried ordering from Finland and I keep getting rejected for my U.S address?
They stopped shipping to US :(. I think jimmy pickles peppers had seeds. You can also look for other growers willing to trade
6 months is a long time :(
in my area (northeast Italy) i can get away with sowing pepper seed in late april, and temperatures are starting to dip into 8-10°C at night these days, so i would be able to juuuust fit these in, but some years the temperature doesn't start to rise at least until may.
how is this variety resistance to cold?
What would be a sweet-hot variety that grows a little faster?
Not very resistant - it has been around the same temperature here at night and as you can see in the video, the leaves are all turning yellow and blotchy from the cold.
@@PepperGeek oh, that won't do :/
@@francescofavro8890 Can't you start your season earlier inside? I sow in Januari and they can only go outside in May (Netherands).
@@aquafan88 not at the moment, no.
My Pepper variety "Beaver Dam" looked a lot like those. They're an heirloom variety brought to Beaver Dam, Wisconsin in 1912 by a Hungarian family. Check them out some day if you have never grown them. They were really pretty in my garden this year!
do sugar rush stripey, peach, and red all taste the same?
I’d say it’s pretty similar. Reds are usually a bit fruitier, but they’re all similar in heat and crunch
@@PepperGeek Thanks for the reply! How is the soapiness and the vegetalness?
what growing zone are you in Pepper Geek?
tried finding sugar rush, all out of stock
I live in the United States how do I get ahold of those seeds
Did u watch the video?
That website they are also on amazon
No one else see a fruit rollup pepper?
Don’t understand the pricing 😢
Expensive yep, I believe mattspeppers.com has them in stock for a good price: www.mattspeppers.com/product-page/sugar-rush-stripey
too bad, the seed is out of stock 💔
I saw - he updates inventory regularly though, get on the email list!
It sorta looks like a fruit roll-up.
Sugar rush stripey is pretty but if the flavor is “just like sugar rush peach” then I am out. I wasn’t impressed by sugar rush peach. Even when ripe colored they weren’t sweet in my garden. Just meh.
