I planted these a couple years back. They fruited so late in the season that i threw them away. This year i started the seeds in January hoping that they fruit earlier. Thanks for your video. Helps me know where to put it in my garden. This year they'll be in full texas sun.
Wow, 80 peppers, that's awesome! I'm also super excited about the growing season. I'll be starting my seeds in about 2 weeks. Can't wait! Hope you have a great growing season!
I’m growing these for the first time, too, this year. I also ordered the seeds from Baker Creek. Was intrigued by their description of sweet/hot & I believe they mentioned tropical flavors. Coincidentally, there was another fellow who reviewed this pepper on his TH-cam channel that I came across earlier today. He said pretty much the same thing as you are saying 👌. He concluded that it was not any hotter than a milder jalapeño. So, I’m “doubly” anxious to get mine grown & ready to harvest. Thanks for this review.
How cool! I think you'll really enjoy them. The pickled peppers we made with these were incredible. I highly recommend pickling some! We made a few batches of salsa which was really good too but the pickles were amazing. Good luck with your harvest!
@@inchwormgardens I did look to see where it ranks on the Scoville heat scale & it says: 5,000. Could be worse, for sure! 😆🌶. Thanks for the reply & advice on pickling.
I've grown these for four or five years hydroponically. Definitely my favorite pepper. Very heavy producer. Fourty to sixty peppers per plant. Heat level is about like a good Jalapeno.
Yay! I think they'll do great for you. I highly recommend pickling them. They created a really unique fruity/spicy pickled pepper. Very tasty. Best of luck!
That's a great idea! I need to get better at storing and preparing the harvest. I seem to always end up wasting peppers at the end of the season. I will try drying peppers next season. Thanks again!
Hey there! I found this from Pepper Geek: "Though we cannot find an official Scoville rating for Sugar Rush Peach peppers, we are confident that they fall around the 50,000-100,000 SHU level. This puts the Sugar Rush Peach Scoville rating between Jalapeno and Habanero peppers" So it is a bit hotter than a Jalapeno!
These take quite a long time to ripen. I don't remember exactly how long these took but the average for this subspecies (Capsicum Baccatum) is 110 days.
I was surprised too! I had to google the KSLS pepper.. Never even heard of it. Looks awesome! So many varieties, so little planting space.. haha. Thanks for stopping by!
@@inchwormgardens it isn't sold, the creator deemed it only be gifted. I have a lot of neat ones on the go and they have black foliage. If your interested once they ripen up I can send you seeds of lots of rare varieties. Pink Taj Mahal, Roxa Black Lantern, KSLS and many more.
@@Lyndsay-jh2um OH WOW!!! That's amazing! Thank you for your offer. I would love that! I'm part of the "Seed Savers Exchange Group" on FB but I have yet to swap seeds with anyone on there. Let's stay in touch! I have a lot of great seeds too but nothing super rare that I know of.
@@Lyndsay-jh2um Thanks Lyndsay! I checked out Khang Starr's video on the KSLS pepper. So cool! I do remember watching his videos a while ago. Seems like a great guy. Even though I probably couldn't handle that level of heat, I would still love to grow them and share them (and eat a little!) Thanks again.

They do take quite a long time to ripen! Good call starting them a bit earlier. I think they'll do great for you this year. Enjoy!
Thanks brother, I haven't grown these yet. I'll order seeds asap. Got around 80 peppers sprouted so far. Super excited about this growing season.

@@inchwormgardens You as well!
Like that you show the grown plant gives an idea of space needs, format excellent. New subscriber
Thank you Sue! Much appreciated!

I've got these started, I'm excited to try them!

As far as storage, I bought some dried and crumbled today from a local farm, it tastes great, I sprinkled some on some soup and it’s delicious.

When your channel grows you should design inchworm baseball caps
hey, great idea! I do like wearing that Craft Brewed hat as you can tell.. haha!
Is it hotter than Jalapeno pepper?

So it is a bit hotter than a Jalapeno!
Great video.
Thank you!!
I have a packet of seeds of Sugar Rush Peach given as a free item when I ordered seeds from Rareseeds.
That's great! I love getting those free seed packets from Baker Creek :) Give them a try!
You have somewhat of a French accent... Are you from a Ontario or Quebec??
Wow, never heard that before! I was born in California and grew up in Texas. Maybe that combination sounds Canadian? 😅
How long did they take to ripen?

i love them so much i eat them all the time and white ghost
Yesss! White Ghost sounds awesome, I'll have to check those out!
I was surprised with the heat. I have a wide range of hot peppers growing. Have you tried KSLS? It's suppose to be great in salsa.

@@inchwormgardens will do! I think you'll be happy with the varieties. Just running some errands, I will sub when I get home 😁

Try candying them!
Omg, that sounds delicious! I've never candied anything before. I'll have to learn how to do that! Any simple videos/recipes you could recommend?
@@inchwormgardens I saw it on Google
This pepper was an open pollination luck of the draw by Chris Fowler of Wales.
That's so cool! I love hearing how these unique varieties came into existence. Nature is amazing..
@@inchwormgardens I have 8 varieties of peppers growing this year. I think I will try some cross pointing for fun. I love growing peppers!
