OTHER: The Ghost Pepper is native to India and is one of the world’s hottest peppers! It has an insane SHU rating of 1,000,000 Scoville Units. That is 400 times hotter than Tabasco Sauce! Ghost Peppers measure around 3 - 6” long by a little over 1” wide and typically weigh 7 - 9 grams. The plants themselves are rather large and almost tree-like. The green fruits turn from green to orange or red at maturity. They are used dried, pickled, and in salsas, chilis, and anything else you might want to add a ridiculous amount of spice to. You really must use caution when handling any parts of this plant including the plant, the seeds, and the fruit. This pepper is unbelievably hot! For that reason, insects and wild animals will not bother these plants so they are excellent companion plants.
