I love chillis, not just the heat but the actual chilli taste. What would all you chilli aficionados recommend as a top taste/heat combo variety? It has to be an outdoor variety but I am in the balmy south-east. Thank you!
Aji Crystal have a lemony tang to them, they are mild(ish) in heat.
I grow Ring of fire, but have to do it in a cold greenhouse.... :-X
hi
i grow and like demon red, prairie fire (both dwarf plants), apache and pinochios nose and would recomend them all
Thanks dtw, think I am probably looking for something with a more 'conventional' chilli flavour, if that makes sense! But I'll keep Aji Crystal in mind for when space isn't as limited and I have room to experiment.
Saddad, thanks! No greenhouse :( so don't think I could risk it in case the whole lot failed - if we get another "summer" like this one, that's entirely likely!
Weedgrower, what's good about each of them?
C'mon chilli-heads! There must be a killerdiller chilli out there just waiting for a place on my plot!
demon red and priarie fire both pack a punch and dont take up to much room, apache are hot but also sweet and pinochios nose are fairly big and pungent, ideal for making curries
I particularly like Espanola as an all rounder, Kung Pao for green curries and Italian Cayenne for (surprise :) ) cayenne.
Ceres, if you want to try Apache as well as others I can send you a couple of seeds. :)
