Primo Heatless
$ 5.25
Description: The 'Primo Heatless' is a captivating mutation of the legendary 7 Pot Primo pepper. This variety was discovered by a grower when a 7 Pot Primo plant began producing pods with virtually no capsaicin (the compound that causes heat). This surprising genetic anomaly has been stabilized for growers seeking maximum flavor with minimal fire.
Key Characteristics:
Heat Level: This pepper is heatless or extremely low-heat, rating near 0 Scoville Heat Units (SHU). Most growers report a gentle tingle or trace heat at best—a dramatic contrast to its multi-million SHU parent.
Flavor Profile: The main reason to grow this variety is for its exceptional, complex flavor. You get the full intensely fruity, floral, and savory flavor of a super-hot Capsicum chinense pepper without the burn. This makes it outstanding for adding deep flavor to sauces, powders, and meals.
Appearance: The pods maintain the fierce, menacing appearance of the original 7 Pot Primo. They are gnarly, wrinkled, and bumpy, often finishing with a distinctive stinger tail. The appearance creates a fun surprise or "mind trick" when eaten!
Best Use: This is a perfect variety for chefs, pepper lovers with low heat tolerance, and anyone looking to create flavorful, non-spicy fermented pepper mashes, sauces, or powders.
The filial generation of this pepper is uncertain, which means it could still be unstable. You may see variations in your grow from this description.
