The ghost is hot enough you want to wear gloves to handle, it's dangerous for animals and such as well so you really gotta be careful where you put them. What color habanero was it? I grew some chocolate habaneros one year that were scorching, they were even too hot. Now it's just tons of sweet peppers/jalapenos and ristra cayennes.
 
I love heat! Habs are about my limit, but I've got 2 strains going that put habs to the test,... "Hawaiian" and "Bolivian Rainbow" I've only heard how hot the Bolivian peppers are, but I can say from first hand the Hawaiian peppers were on par with habs or hotter out of a smaller bright red pod!


I'm working with a grower that has a germinated "Buhnt Jolikia" (sp?) And so long as we get some pods on that plant in a few months one of them will be mine!

Hey!
Glad to see someone else with a taste for heat.
Anyhow, I do grow them in my indoor grow.
Here is how their life cycle works - my observational data:
Seed to flower - Can be accomplished with 24hr on. AKA your veg room.
They will produce little yellow flowers. I believe this is the time they will
pollinate each other in order to make the peppers themselves.
They seem to flower perpetually at 24/0.

I then throw them into 12/12 aka your budding room. This is when they
form the pepper pods. I have been growin them in a 2KHPS W/ CO2, and have had
great results. VERY VERY VERY SPICY!
I would say a single pepper pod lasts me 2 weeks if I am conservative.

I simply germinate them in a rapid rooter, and straight to a 5 gal with FFOF.
No nutes, just water. They seem to tolerate a LOT of stress. Heat, etc.

Any ways hope that helps anybody who is interested.
