Yellow Brain Strain / Yellow 7 Pot Pepper Seeds
Yellow Brain Strain / Yellow 7 Pot - This pepper is extremely hot and rivals some of the hottest peppers in the world. It looks like a brain because of its lumpy appearance, but brain strain is actually what happens when you eat it!
A unique pepper with pods 2-1/2” long and 2-1/2” wide with crinkled yellow skin. It has a pineapple-like fruity taste and a whole lot of heat. Plants grow to 3’ tall and produce fruit all season. Capsicum chinense (110 days)
Warning: Handling this pepper requires extreme caution. Wear hand, eye and breathing protection. These peppers are great to add to salsa recipes or to make hot sauce - just add the amount desired to get the spicy kick you like.
Heat Level: Reckless. Scoville Heat Units 1,600,000
~ Packet contains 10 seeds.
In early spring, start seeds indoors 8 weeks prior to warm nightly temperatures. Place the seeds in sterile media and cover 1/4” deep. Provide 85°F bottom heat, bright light and keep moist at all times. Seeds will germinate in 7 - 21 days. Transplant seedlings into pots and grow until there are 6 true leaves on the plant. Plant them directly into rich soil, 36” apart or into large 5 gallon containers. Harvest when full size.

Please let me know when BRAIN STRAIN YELLOW pepper seeds are available.
Thank you
Purchased 10 seeds, received 12, 11 germinated.
These are some fine growing peppers. Nearly all of them sprouted within eight days of planting and are growing at a steady pace. All are developing solid leaves and should be ready for transplanting out of the seed tray in the next couple of days (today is 25 days after planting). I can't say the same about some of my other peppers...Yes, I am looking at you, Dragon's Breath...slow poke.
Avg days to sprout: 8.0
First sprout day: 6
Last sprout day: 11
Growing media: Miracle Gro seed starting mix.
Growing temp: 81-84 (thermometer in dirt).
Fertilizer: Miracle Gro at seedling strength, after first true leaves emerged.
Really fruity flavor and plenty of heat. We found it’s great to put a little bit on fish filets with lemon and dill.
A beast of heat.... one of the hottest things I've ever ingested. Makes a great hot sauce.
These are quite unique looking peppers, and they make a killer hot sauce. Good seeds, good germination rate. Thank you!
