Default Scoville Chart from Sandia Seeds

Not trying to shill for Sandia but they have a Scoville Chart for the peppers they sell thought you might like the information. http://www.sandiaseed.com/blogs/news...r-in-the-world

I looked at the chart and it isn't very accurate in my book and many of the other charts are the same way.
This is in no way meant to stomp on your offer to show us a chart.
I also hate to see a pepper named Paprika this makes people think there is one pepper out there that they make paprika from.
This is in no way reality.
It is complicated and I am sorry if I sound negative I dont mean to.

I like this one because it is simple, Worth do you think it is accurate? Some that I am growing are not on here like the paprika peppers

So far I have found a few mistakes the list is mind boggling.
Some of these are technical mistakes on the names.
Still reading.

Yeah it is mixed up too but I have to say that there are a lot of ways these mistakes and perceptions can be made.

The black and red background with white lettering is killing me.

Those are some really interesting charts... thanks for posting them. It will help me to select peppers that match my preferred heat level, which is something less than volcanic.

Like I said take the charts with a grain of salt and dont make it your finale judgment or be surprised when one listed at 15000 burns your lips off and leaves you balled up on the floor.
