Carolina Reaper is a relatively new breed of Capsicum chinense. She is probably a cross between a Naga and a red Habanero from the West Indian island of St. Vincent. On the website of his company puckerbuttpeppercompany.com it is reported that Habanero seeds were brought by a friend from the Caribbean. If you take a closer look at a reaper pod, you will discover a dangerous-looking sting at the bottom of the chili. This shape resembles that of a scorpion. Carolina Reaper chilies look very similar to 7 Pot Douglah or Trinidad Scorpion. The surface and red signal color could be from a Bhut Jolokia. All suspected varieties from which the Carolina Reaper could be bred belong to the Capsicum chinense species.
Watering container peppers will vary depending on the location. if the container is indoors, your pepper plant will have no other source of water but you. if that is the case, you should water it daily. its roots are restrained by the container so they cannot grow outward or down to reach underground moisture the way an outdoor plant would.
Light is an essential factor in maintaining plants. The rate of growth and length of time a plant remains active is dependent on the amount of light it receives. Light energy is used in photosynthesis, the plant's most basic metabolic process.
Whether it be plastic or clay, make sure the pot you select has drainage holes in the bottom to prevent over-watering.
Wear gloves! At the last third of the stem, separate the chilies from the mother plant. A sharp knife or a small pair of sturdy scissors will help you to do this with minimal injury. You can tell when the harvest is ready by the even red color. About 100 days after flowering and 230 days after sowing, the time should come. Wear gloves!

The chilies have a lantern shape and end in a scorpion sting. Although the breed is still relatively young, it is very stable. Maybe two or three plants out of one hundred do not look like painted Reapers. But this is quite within the normal range and can also be seen in older breeds. To increase the gene pool of the stable plants, you should only continue breeding from very typical specimens.
