Cultivation Tips for Success To help you grow thriving pepper plants:

Watering: Maintain consistent moisture without over-saturating the soil.

Sunlight: Ensure they receive a minimum of 6 hours of direct sunlight daily.

Soil: Fertile, well-draining soil is key. Consider adding compost for an organic nutrient boost.

Spacing: Give each plant sufficient space to grow, allowing for air circulation to prevent diseases.

The Scoville Scale

The world of chili peppers is as diverse as it is spicy. But how do we measure the heat of these fiery fruits? Enter the Scoville Scale, a system developed to quantify the spiciness or heat of chili peppers and other spicy foods. In simple terms, the Scoville Scale measures the concentration of capsaicin, the chemical responsible for the spicy sensation. The higher the SHU value, the spicier the pepper.

Bell Peppers: 0 SHU (no heat)

Poblano Peppers: 1,000-2,000 SHU

Jalapeños: 2,500-8,000 SHU

Habaneros: 100,000-350,000 SHU

Carolina Reaper (one of the world's hottest): Over 2,200,000 SHU
