Anyone else growing Carolina Reapers (HP22B) Strain?

The title says it all. I am just curious as to how many of us are growing the worlds hottest pepper.

Are you sure? According to wikipedia, the current hottest pepper is the Trinidad Moruga Scorpion. (although wikipedia isn't always right about everything.)

Not to be a buzz-kill to the OP, but the "World-Record-Hottest-Pepper" is constantly changing, and to my mind, it doesn't make sense. At a certain point, the heat reaches a level that it's no longer enjoyable. I cooked professionally for a couple of years, and Thai Sri Racha is about my limit. I'm definitely interested in how your growing project goes though.

Here's a thread I started about the Naga Jolokia pepper sauce I bought a while back. I'm getting better at using it (very sparingly) but it's still too strong for my taste.
