From extremely hot pepper breeder Kevin Bane of Cooley Springs, South Carolina. The ‘Alpha 1’ Hot Pepper Breeders Mix is the result of two extremely hot pepper crosses being crossed together. One cross was ‘Moruga Scorpion’ x ‘Fatalii Gourmet Jigsaw’, and the other also involved two super-hots. The end result is a diverse mix that’s highly unstable and will keep throwing out new stuff for a while. According to Kevin, so far every plant has been “super productive.” He believes this one should prove to be highly adaptable. Another product of “Project Flamethrower”, from the same population as ‘Tuck Tail Yellow’. Let us know what you get out of this one!
