The Cherry Bomb
The Cherry Bomb is a prolific growing chili for me. This is the typical size I attain from a pot-grown plant. It grows to a height of about 30cm (1ft).
Heat - this is what I would describe as a low to medium heat.
Scoville Rating - 2,500 - 5,000
Description - Small/medium sized, this chili grows easily and abundantly.
General - Very firm skin.
Good For:-
The larger of these can be hollowed out for stuffing - cheese, small chicken pieces.
Excellent when used fresh, sliced in a salad (in moderation).
The colour makes them ideal for making a pepper mash.
Perfect for pickling either whole or cut the tops and add a garlic clove.
Not Good For:-
Ristras - they shrivel away to nothing
They are difficult to break up for pepper flakes.
The seeds keep well and also grow easily.
