It’s finally here a true purple reaper we said when we first got the Purple Reaper. Then we ended up with 4 different strains from a grow out. Two of them grow with black stems and dark leafs and purple/black starting pods. The other two we got one that was all green plant and had some purple in the stems here and there. This one we have discarded. But the last one is a really nice strain. It has green plant and green/purple pods to start and ripen bright red.  These group of Purple Reaper Plants are just beautiful and the flowers have some purple in them. Plants grow very good almost fast with good yields. So good pruning of plants can be keep them shorter and bushy for indoor growing and for larger yields 

This is one of now 3 new Purple Reapers and this one has what we call a Bright Red pods. Well one of the other ones has Dull Red pods. This one and one of the others has black stems and leafs. With the other one that has green leafs and stems and green with purple pods to start. It’s pods start ripen to bright red too . We will add link here to them soon for now you will have to search them on our search if your interested in them.

There names are 7-Pot Carolina Reaper Purple the other black stems and Carolina Reaper Purple Green. We hope this make it easier to tell them apart
