The listing, Trinidad Moruga Scorpion + Ghost Pepper Seeds has ended.
Winner will receive 25 seeds of the moruga scorpion and 25 seeds of the ghost pepper. Ghost peppers range from 855,000 to 1,041,427 Scoville heat units (SHU) on the pepper scale. Scorpion peppers range from 1,200,000 SHU to 2,000,000 SHU. So that makes two things true:
The hottest ghost pepper will always be milder than the mildest Trinidad Moruga Scorpion
The hottest Scorpion pepper will always be more than twice as hot as the mildest ghost pepper
That’s crazy heat, no matter where you look. For perspective, habanero peppers are hot, and they max out at 350,000 SHU tops. We are talking pepper heat easily double that and up to seven times the pungency. Still, the Moruga Scorpion is the no doubt heat winner between the two.
