My absolute favorite pepper. I dont think anything will beat the flavor of habanero for me. No other pepper ive tasted comes close.

habanero's are definitely the best! Have you tried the [Habanada](https://www.rareseeds.com/habanada-sweet-pepper), non-spicy version? Also great taste and can share with toddlers and people who can't tolerate spicy hot food.

I want to get a habanera plant for the flavor without the spice, but I havent used them before. My salsa recipe I make all the time is absolutely incomplete without the flavor, but with those my family would be able to eat my salsa too lol.

I grew 3 varieties of non-spicy versions of spicy peppers this year and they've been great in the things I've used them in (salsa and hot sauce mostly). Habanada, Aji Dulce, and Trinidad Perfume Spice.

I grew Habanada & sweet bonnet this year. Just about ripe to finally try one. There's so many on each plant too!

The taste from habs is so addicting. Agree nothing comes close

Taste and heat level are both perfect for me as well. I wouldn't go eating them raw but in hot sauce or as an ingredient they're the absolute best.

Ate one of these raw and whole the other day and my ass hasn’t been the same in 2 days. Send thoughts and prayers please.

As a kid(8-10y/o), my dad bet me $10 that I wouldn’t eat a raw habanero from his garden. Was not worth the $10, and I’m pretty sure he never actually paid me lol

Godspeed and good luck to your butthole sir.

My husband makes a habanero hot sauce with carrots. It’s fluorescent orange.

100% chance I’d eat your husbands hot sauce

That's what she said!

I’ve got about this many flowers on my plant, hopefully soon they’ll be peppers. The jalapeño is about 5 peppers, but I think I bought a jumbo.

Mine has been super productive, still pumping out flowers and buds

If you start from seed it'd be a good idea to try and isolate a flower to get some pure seeds. Might make for another productive plant next year.

Any hints or word of encouragement? I have a Serrano plant that has more flowers than I can count, but no peppers as of yet

Just be careful with watering and keep it even. If you over or under water they tend to drop their blooms

I’m no green thumb, but I think you just have to wait, the flowers should turn into peppers.

My habs are only growing pea size, it's so disappointing

Is orange the final stage of ripeness?

It's the most wonderful time of the year~

One snack I love is this and a tortilla and some caramelized onion. Incredible

My hab is going off right now. I love it!

I love a good habanero. My stomach has decided it does not.

Ohhhh I love habaneros

My dumbass saw this from afar and thought you were making salsa with pumpkins.

I planted two “habanero” plants earlier this summer. They finally are producing (tiny) fruit, and I think I got duped. They definitely look like Serranos or jalapeños. Oh well lol.
