Double posts merged, thread moved.

[woody]

sorry about the double post

[woody]

im begging to wonder if there is such a pepper

[POTAWIE]

7-pod and scorpion's both from Trinidad and both very difficult to find. One 7-pod is said to be enough to heat 7 pots of soup/stew.

[woody]

i have scorpian and all nagas just missing 7 pod, very frustrating, there is no sign of it

Woody

[POTAWIE]

I'm working on a lead for 7-pod, I'll keep you posted. How are the Scorpions Woody? Any extra seeds for sale/trade?

[woody]

possible, they are going fast, pm me if you get any 7 pod

cheers
woody

[woody]

I have some coming, if i have some spare i will let you know.
cheers

We also have the elusive 7 pod seed coming.
What I heard that in Trinidad the 7 pod is considered almost a national treasure.

We can't reveal our source of the seed. But plan on growing them out. So we'll have seeds available after we harvest some pods. Which I'm told by our source as the pods have tons of placental tissue and you can smell the capsicum when you handle the pods.

Hope all is true.

Not only did we receive the 7 pod we also now have Trinidad Scorpion.

We'll be growing these out and sharing the wealth.

A fellow moderator on a forum I am in is from trinidad. I will ask him for a lead.

[sevver]

I will be able to get a lead on it, but he has never heard of the seven pod. Is that the name of it or is there a different one? How about a picture of it. He said there are a ton of peppers there in Trinidad. Thanks.

[POTAWIE]

Check out the chileman's database.

[sevver]

Thanks, I sent the link to him. We shall see what he comes up with.

[Anija]

I might have a line on some Trinidad Congo seeds, if anyone is interested....

[bowhunter]

would like to trade for some 7pod if any one ever finds a good lead. just a grower and would like to see what the hype all about

[sevver]

My guy suddenly stopped communicating about it. He is young, so he probably doesn't care... Oh well. I hope a good lead turns up, it would be a nice addition to my garden next year.

[marcosauces]

wassup Bowhunter..welcome to the clan..:)

[bowhunter]

thanks for the welcome marcosauces.
let it burn

[sevver]

Yes, welcome to the hottest place on the 'net. It is nice having other people who understand...

[s4orce]

:hell: I am also in posession of the 7 pot pepper seeds as well as a plant. e-mail me for details.:hell:

[POTAWIE]

Welcome to the forum s4orce. How big is your plant? Any pictures?

[s4orce]

I do not have a pic of the plant just yet, it has been a little cold in FL recently and I think it affected the plant a little. I received the plant a couple days ago from my dad in NY. He had about four plants which he keeps in the attic where it is warm and well lit, he gave me two which I just brought to FL, so I just need a little while for it to resprout new branches/leaves.

[darlochileman]

Hi Guys,

Its amazing how many people want to get there hands on 7 pod and Trinidad Scorpion since we upgraded them from Extremely Hot to Nuclear in the chileman database :lol: :lol: :lol:

By the way, the TRUE 7 pod looks different to the pictures shown in the database. These seeds are unbelievbly rare but yet more and more people claim to have them (just like the Naga Morich which we brought to chileheads attention last year), hence why we have not posted the true 7 pod image.

If you genuinely believe you have 7 pod, post a picture to thechileman@hotmail.co.uk and I'll tell you whether you really have got your hands on the genuine article.

[s4orce]

I have had many conversations with my mother, grandmother, aunt, father, uncles, etc. Some reside in New York and some reside in Trinidad (home of the 7 pot). The word is--it became rare because it is too hot for cooking. Because of this, people stopped using it and less people kept it around, hence, it became rare to have. My father--being a pepper fanatic has the plant and since I showed so much interest in it, he gave me two of his precious plants. Another thing which I found interesting was the name of the pepper--they called it "7 pot" not "7 pod". It got its name because the pepper was hot enough to make 7 pots of stew or curry. English is spoken in Trinidad, but due to the fact that it is "broken english", the word pot can be easily confused with pod. (I think that s what happened, I can be wrong)I do have a couple of the actual peppers, I will take a picture of it and send it to you. I must say though...everyone I spoke to said that the pepper has a "rough/pimply" exterior compared to all other peppers they were familiar with.

[woody]

Any chance of a seed swop, i have been chasing this pepper for a while.
I have some scorpian to swop

[rainforest2]

darlochileman,

If you have a true Trinidad 7 pod and Scorpion, why you are not posting the true pictures of Trinidad 7 pod and Scorpion pepper. Thank

i´m also looking for the 7 pod and the trinidad scorpion pepers. i would be very glad, if anybody could send me some seeds of this peppers or tell me a shop, where i can buy the seeds.

thanks

[thehotpepper.com]

Welcome gumbler!

[gumbler]

such a nice welcome :)

hi everyone ;)

[woody]

I'm growing both this year, just got to wait a few more weeks to make sure they are "true" I'll let you know and post pics when ready.

[kato]

We are currently growing Trinidad Scorpion, 7 pod & Bhut Joalika and of the 3 Trinidad Scorpions seem to be the hottest of them. We also received the scorpion, 7 pod and bhut's from someone else and that seems to be the case also.

Hi all.

I would be very interested in obtaining a few seeds for the 7pod. I know it is hard to come by but I thought I might try.

I am living in Brazil and may be able to get access to a few seeds of the Brazilian Pepper varieties if you require a trade.

Thanks!

[POTAWIE]

Welcome tipzter
Sorry, I do non't have the seven-pod but there are a few brazilian peppers I am very interested in. Do you have or know about Biquino baccatum or Murupi Doce. I am quite interested in buying or trading for these brazilian varieties if you might have some or know of a source.

[tipzter]

I don't sell my seeds I love to trade as well as donate when I have them in abundance. I sent you a PM with the list of peppers I have at the moment. Most of them I have a few seeds available at the moment but if you want more than a few seeds it will have to wait until they finish growing. Thanks!

[chilliman64]

if anyone has any true 7 pod/pot seed they would like to trade or sell I am very interested in talking with you. please send a pm.

I have bhut jolokia, naga morich, dorset naga, fatalii, choc hab and red savina seed, amongst others which I will gladly exchange for some 7's.

Mark

[QuebecFire]

Still searching :rolleyes:

[Steve H Graham]

I would love to have some Trinidad Scorpion and 7 Pod seeds. I don't have anything really weird to trade. Fatalis, Jamaican hot chocolates, Tobago seasoning peppers, and prig ki nus are probably my weirdest peppers. The prig ki nus and seasoning peppers haven't fruited yet.

[chilliman64]

I've now stopped looking

[QuebecFire]

:( why are you stop searching ?

[chilliman64]

until next season I will wait

[QuebecFire]

anyway they'll probably be more available in the next sumers (lik enaga do)

[TriniHottie]

Hi ...I have 7 pod... We call it 7 POT in Trinidad...

[cap lover]

interesting, is it because it can flavour 7 pots of stew? or is that myth?

[cap lover]

would like to trade for some 7pod if any one ever finds a good lead. just a grower and would like to see what the hype all about
