Inferno

[Johnny Dangerr]

I have found a Banana Pepper that is killer. My go to pepper is a Serreno and I can wolf down 3 to 4 Chili Pequins with a sandwich and chips for lunch. With that said the Inferno is HOT. One 3 inch pepper is good for 3 meals, and the flavor is off the hook.

How do I make more plants from the one I have. Seeds? Cloning? Thinking about setting up a tiny inside grow this winter to keep it going.

Any ideas?

If hybrid you can't use the seeds.

This is what I've done with red chili peppers in the past: String the peppers up on some thread or string to dry. It will take a couple of months pending on humidity. I hang mine in the kitchen for decoration. It also reminds me I have spice on hand . Once dry, cut them open length wise and deseed the pods. Remove all fiber from seeds, place on a paper towel and fold up, and put in a plastic zipplock bag. Place in the lower part of your frig for a couple of months, or in your freezer for a couple of weeks. This simulates winter and will stimulate them. Then take the seeds out and plant.

As for the empty pepper pods, I chop mine up and place on a cookie sheet in the oven on very low heat. Kind of like you were making jerky. Then use as a seasoning. That way nothing goes to waste.

My brother grows them out the wazoo, Japs, habanarros, red and green chilies, ect. So I always have plenty.

You can also store them whole in the freezer in zip-lock bags. I take them out when needed for cooking, or adding to salsa. Not like the real fresh live ones. But it will do for storage .
