PSU Trinidad Scorpion PeppersA study on the effect of ignorance and neglect on the growth of Trinidad Moruga Scorpion Peppers at Penn State University:
90 day (approx) experiment to determine whether it is possible for four entrepreneurial college freshmen to successfully germinate, plant, and maintain a Trinidad Scorpion plant and see it through to fruition. PagesHomeOur PlanThe Trinidad Moruga ScorpionGallery Monday, September 21, 2015

Our Gatorade-bottle contraption proved effective. The harvested pepper appeared to be wilting as well, so we turned it into a salsa before it went bad. Ingredients include:
1 Trinidad Scorpion pepper1 dried Ghost pepper3 fresh, whole Jalapeno peppers4 jarred Jalapeno cross-sectionsA dash of RedHot hot sauce1 small onion2 whole tomatoesSeasonings to tasteA dash of olive oilWe plan to sacrifice a large group of willing participants to try it out in the upcoming week!

In order to provide them with what is required for their survival, I have devised a low budget self-sustaining setup. I filled a large Gatorade bottle with water and poked two small holes in the cap. This should allow water to seep out slowly over the next couple days. Hopefully, it will not get clogged and will effectively disperse water. Also, I have setup an outlet timer to provide the plants with 14 hours of the LED plant light per day. Aside from this, they should be able to survive on their own. We will check back in with the peppers in 10 days!

As long as we keep the window closed, this should not bring the plants to dangerous temperatures. Being on top of the microwave and fridge provides has its advantages. The heat radiated from their backs hugs the wall and keeps the peppers at a relatively constant temperature. Hopefully, this addition of a fan will help in the long run!

It has dropped below freezing, and although our room has been above that temperature, it was still much too cold for the pepper plants. They have survived, but both buds and many leaves have perished.

Our last second pepper bud was not sustained by the plant and died. Hopefully, we will be able to keep these two alive until they are maintainable and viable to live with minimal external support. These might be trickier, as they are in close proximity of one another. Their weight as they develop may become problematic, but we will find out. Here they are!

Posted byUnknownat8:40 PMNo comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to PinterestDay 80: Decapsaicion by Robespepper (Let them eat hotcakes)Our work has finally yielded results! Today, we harvested our first pepper. It was a nerve-racking and arduous process in which we nearly missed death countless times. We took various safety precautions including wearing our CDC-approved Venetian plague doctor masks --they are currently being distributed to Ebola-ridden areas throughout the world. After cutting the pepper from its stem, we placed it in a small bag and froze it for future use. Comment what you think we should do with it!

However, much has happened. In the spirit of brevity, I will describe the events which have unfolded by describing each picture.


One of the smaller sprouts died, but the other, still living, happened to be too much of a burden to take care of. We planted it in the floor plant in our dorm lobby.


Also, this pepper bud, which appears to be thriving, is actually dead currently.

On the bright side, our one live pepper is much more alive. WE PLAN TO HARVEST THIS WEEKEND! We're currently getting our salsa recipes ready.

Lastly, this happened. I guess another supposedly dead seedling sprouted the other day. So, we're just going to roll with it for now.

That is all for this week. Hopefully, we will be more punctual with posting about the progress of the peppers in the coming weeks. Enjoy!Posted byUnknownat2:53 PMNo comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Monday, October 27, 2014 Day 60: A Light Bud Great news: the second pepper appears to be budding right now! It seems that our original timeline was slightly off. This pepper probably wont be ready for harvesting until around Christmas possibly. Just in time for a Christmas salsa. The first pepper, however, is thriving. It appears to be entirely red without any sign of a green tip. The shape and color still need to develop a little more before it will be ready for consumption. In the meantime, make sure you enter the raffle on Facebook by liking the page and going to the giveaway tab! We will ship the pepper if necessary. https://www.facebook.com/psupeppers/app_228910107186452

It probably has enough capsaicin to kill a developed fetus by now. The process occurred a lot quicker than expected, so the pepper may be ready for harvesting by October 31st. We received some great suggestions for the use of the pepper, including contraceptive adulteration, but we are requesting Halloween-themed ideas instead. Comment them below!

We didn't expect a ripe pepper this soon. We have no idea what to do with it. If you have any ideas for what to do when it's ready (within the next two weeks or so), please comment them!

The Guinness Book of World Records has recently declared this pepper as the cutest baby pepper in the world. At 0.08 oz, little Bubbles has just embarked on his journey to grow up to be cut, chopped up, pureed in a blender, and ingested in the form of salsa. I will keep you all updated on the progress of Bubbles. You can see him in the center of the picture. He's really tiny.

Whoopsie-doopsie. Every other day or so, we have had to drain the water collecting on the bottom, which apparently means there is too much water. Go figure. Anyhow, we are reducing the amount of water to 12 fl oz. every other day. We'll see how it turns out. You can see the water still collected at the bottom after a week of reduced watering. Expect updates on the hostage situation as well.


Posted byUnknownat3:01 PMNo comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Tuesday, October 7, 2014 Day 40: RansomI have just received and image of the peppers from an anonymous number. They are being held hostage, but should be in a sustainable and safe environment. The individual is requesting a ransom payment of...One million dollars. A computer forensics team is currently tracking the location of the fugitive. We hope to have our peppers back within the next week.

Posted byUnknownat10:15 AMNo comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Monday, October 6, 2014 Day 39: The Plot Thickens The pepper plants are slowly but surely approaching fruition...that is, those that are left. At approximately 2:30 on Sunday afternoon, a single plant was stolen. The culprit, unknown, will surely face crippling regret and cave under the power of their guilt complex, revealing their identity promptly. I will be contacting ADT Home Security Systems shortly. Hopefully, there are preventative measures in existence for horticulture theft.
Thankfully, there is in fact one lead - the malefactor left the scooping apparatus used to facilitate the theft. I am currently dusting for prints, and will provide a copy of the police report in my next update. Comment if you have any leads!





Posted byUnknownat11:07 AMNo comments: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest Friday, October 3, 2014 Day 36: Things are starting to get spicy Over the past week or so, we have seen some development in a single pepper bud. The peppers have been making excellent progress. However, we have decided to eliminate both lamps and to utilize the LED plant light by itself due to fast drying that was occurring. The plants have been looking very healthy since then, so we plan to continue with this course of action for the time being. On another note, we were under the assumption that most of the seeds were dead when we planted the four live sprouts. We threw them into the pot unsuspectingly and earlier this week, two of them just happened to sprout out of the soil. That was an unexpected delight. We will be updating the progress of the two new sprouts and the single pepper over the upcoming days!
