FAQ
How does Yellow Trinidad Scorpion compare to the classic Trinidad Scorpion?
It is a natural variant with considerably less heat — still plenty hot, but pleasantly citrusy with it. The fruit ripens yellow to orange and often bears the infamous scorpion tail.
Is it a heavy producer?
Yes. It is more productive than other Scorpion types.
The fruit is rotting at the blossom end — what went wrong?
That is blossom end rot, a common pepper ailment and one of the most easily remedied. Inconsistent watering is usually the cause, so water consistently and consider drip tape irrigation.
