"Haba" Be A "Sweet" Garden will consist of the following peppers. Habanada Pepper: The world’s first “heat-less” habanero. Instead of heat, it delivers a blast of sweet tropical flavors. A true game-changer in the pepper world. ‘Habanada’ is the world’s first “heat-less” habanero. Instead of heat, it delivers a blast of sweet tropical flavors. Excellent seared, braised, roasted, or raw, ‘Habanada’ is a versatile culinary jewel. Extremely productive and early. Can be used at the green stage, but ‘Habanada’ reaches the pinnacle of flavor and texture when it turns a beautiful orange hue. Plant Height: 13" - 15".
Sweet Heat: Who says you can't have it all? Sweet Heat is the perfect combination of sugary goodness and spicy heat . . . with a little smoky flavorful thrown in for good measure! Though classified as a hot pepper, Sweet Heat scores a tongue-friendly 329 on the Scoville heat scale. These oblong, plump little peppers, just 3½ inches long and about 1½ inches in diameter, redefine "mild," because they are packed with distinctive flavor yet not so much heat that they can only be eaten by the bold. And it packs 65% more Vitamin C into its fruit than most others, so you get an extra pop of nutrition with every bite! Plant Height: 10" to 12".
Machine: Bounty Elite
Vendors: Haba is Burpee, Sweet is Park
Sponge: Park
Seeds PP: 2
Nutes: AG, 6ml to begin

I just ordered some of these and will also be growing them. I like the description of the taste, being a sweet pepper lover. The hottest I can tolerate is Frank's sauce, and that is considered mild to most people. Your project has yet again inspired me to grow something other than flowers LOL!

Just removed 4 huge leaves from the Sweet, no inner leaves but it is filled with flowers inside. I am doing my best not to.
And I found a Pepper which I had no clue was there.
Last but not least, here are the tiny bud of the haba

I am loving what I see, but mine is so slow growing! It is no higher than 1 inch! I think I am going to put flowers in there.

The sweets are exploding with peppers and flowers. I have been really good in not trimming the leaves. Yes I have trimmed a few but I am no way doing it like I usually do. The Haba has a lot of flowers growing now. If oyu look close in the center you can see a cluster of white on the Haba.

Ooh the Habas sound great, I'm a fan of flavor but not heat. How much longer before you'll be able to harvest?
