Growing Information

Growing Trinidad Moruga Scorpion Hot Pepper

‘Trinidad Moruga Scorpion’ is an open-pollinated super-hot pepper prized for its extreme heat and fruity, citrus-like flavor. Golf ball-sized fruits develop wrinkled skin and a pointed tip resembling a scorpion’s sting before ripening from green to red.

Start ‘Trinidad Moruga Scorpion’ indoors for transplanting. Plant seeds about ¼ inch deep, space plants 24 to 36 inches apart, and grow in full sun. This heat-tolerant variety performs best through a long, warm season.

Ready to harvest in about 90 days, pick fruits once they reach their mature size and full red color. Handle the extremely hot peppers with appropriate care.

Extremely hot and fruity, ‘Trinidad Moruga Scorpion’ is best used sparingly in salsa, marinades, hot sauces, and other spicy recipes.

Doing well

Started in February under grow lights. Now in a raised bed and has 100s of pods, a few starting to ripen! Ready to make some tasty sauce! Be patient with them, take more time compared to other peppers.

Failed germination

Germination pushed the seed to the surface and hasn’t done anything else.
