Originally thought the name of this pepper was Galaxy Sweet but realized later that Lowes has no clue what their plants are.
Initially I thought this was just a nice sweet pepper and I took the planter label for it's word and I should have at least tasted before I first used it.
I finally gave it a taste the other day and it was sweeter then I was expecting, but it was also hot, something I definitely wasn't expecting.
I dove into the internet to find out just what this pepper was which was when I found out it's real name, the Galaxy Red F1 with a scoville
level of around 4,000 making it about on par with a jalapeno.
Definitely a great pepper but if i had known it was a hot pepper I would have been a little more sparse with it's use to spread it out more.

I'm not 100% on the growing methods yet but a desert environment could actually be ideal for the super hot peppers as the hotter the pepper the dryer they like to be. I do try to space out the watering to every 2 or 3 days but lately here in Central Florida it has been raining a lot. I do have decent sized holes drilled in the bottom of the pots though as any kind of standing water in the pots can actually rot the roots and kill them.
