Mine never got big enough to be more than a one or 2 bite affair so I can't comment on the smell when cut but they def did have a decidedly different taste that was almost chemical like.

I grew mine from seed, like the jalapenos, serranos, habeneros and cayennes I had last year. I managed to winter over the ghost, a cayenne and I think a cuppla jalapeno plants and have 'em all out soakin up rays now. The cayennes were the fastest growin of 'em all and already has a new pepper on it while the others are just now buddin out.

Last week I cheated and snagged a tobasco, a cuppla more jalapenos and another habenero plant at a nursery. They're about 8-10" tall and are nice healthy lookin lil pups so I'm hopin to have some peppers from all of those in a month or so.

I need to get out there and take some pics of 'em all. Maybe I will ... about the same time we get a new IOTW
