We Like it Spicy

This is a set of 10 seeds from Hangjiao Space Pepper #5 - Helix Nebula. This is an awesome pepper that grows in curly, spiral shaped pods! Mild to medium heat and a flavor that is good but not standout make this a good pepper for adding to hot sauces, drying as a powder, or any other use that might blend other flavors. Very very cool to grow!

10 open pollinated seeds.

 

Hangjiao peppers have an incredible story that involves China sending seeds to space to expose them to space radiation in the hopes of speeding mutations for bigger yields, higher vitamin C content, and faster growing. 

I went on a quest starting in 2019 to find seeds for all 10 varieties and to grow them all in the winter and spring of 2021 in my indoor pepper garden. I had to source seeds from all over the world to make this possible but now that I have grown all 10 varieties and harvested seeds I am excited to make them available to pepper lovers to grow on their own!

 

I also made youtube videos documenting the grow, check them out at: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL1a98WUFhio-I0FfU8AN5MInDC6Rq2vbQ
