Has anyone grown siling labuyo?

[pepperfever]

A man went to the Phillipines, brought seeds back with him and I was fortunate to get some of what is claimed to be the hottest pepper in the Phillipines. From what I can find they seem to be a birdseye. Anyone growing or has grown them in the past? Thanks for the help. Jackie

hi Jackie, I've not grown them but they are apparently 'very hot', see the link:

I recieved seeds too from him. I'm currently waiting for germination. First time growing them.

Jackie, do you have any of these seeds left and would you be into a trade?

I've only grown the standard Birdseye and it was a very tall plant and very easy to grow.

I hope to test your theory RBB with some Birdseye seeds I collected this year.

A Bird's Eye plant was the first pepper I ever grew and it was really easy!
