Thai Prik (small red chilis) seed, free
Folks, just got back from Bangkok, and have some of this seed. This is the chile used for Prik Nam Pla and Prik Dong sauces. It is the Bird's Eye Chile, or Bird Chile, or Thai Chile, but a very slim and tapered version. If you want some seeds to try out, PM me.

I would like to try some. I have a plant right now of Prik Kee Noo Suan. It is a
small, blunt chili. |

Folks, I delayed sending these seeds to you until I could get them to germinate - I am still smarting from the West Indies Red seed that I bought in Port of Spain in large quantities and distributed - but as far as I know, no one ever got a single seed to germinate.
I am happy to say that I have 100% germination with these Thai Prik seeds, which I saved myself from the peppers, so I will get them into the mail to the 6 people who asked for them. |

Scott, did you hear how the germination was going from the seeds you sent out?
I planted two of mine, and am waiting....  You say these are so very hot that I need to wear gloves just to remove the seeds from them? You're scaring me!

I have about 100% germination from my Thai Prik seeds. I also over wintered a couple of them, and they are leafing like crazy. I would either wear gloves or wash my hands several times in hot water and soap - they are not super hots like the scorpions or nagas, but they are very hot.
