Seed Count
The heat level of the Borg 9 at over 1,100,000 SHU is astounding, often compared to the notorious Carolina Reaper.

While incredibly hot, the Borg 9 also offers a surprising bubblegum-like sweetness. 

The Borg 9 is considered "insane" or "superhot" due to its intense heat.

Pods are typically golf ball-sized and range in color from light green to vibrant red. 

They can also be yellow or even purple. 

The texture is described as "gnarly" and may vary depending on the strain. 

The Borg 9 is a cross between a 7 Pot Bubblegum and a Naglah. 

It's a high-yielding pepper. 

Plants can grow up to 1 meter tall when grown in pots. 

The pods are thin-walled and dry well for powder.

The many varieties of sweet and hot peppers thrive on full sun and warm weather. Cold temperatures can weaken pepper plants and they may never fully recover, so don’t rush to plant in the spring. Be certain to use the black side of the mulch covers to speed soil warming and early growth, but be careful, as they can also overheat the plants in certain climates. Peppers can be temperamental if temperatures are too hot or too cool. Nighttime temperatures below 60°F or above 75°F can reduce fruit set. Peppers need a steady supply of water for their best performance, so be sure to check water levels each day. Like tomatoes, you may find blossom end rot on your peppers, which can be easily corrected. Peppers are prone to sun scald, so moving them to partial shade can help if temperatures become too hot. Sweet peppers can be cut up and eaten raw, roasted and marinated, sauteed; or used in stews, soups, and stir fry. Hot peppers can be pickled, added to stew, used in stir fry, and are excellent when dried and ground to be used as a seasoning to give nearly any dish a little kick.
