Forget Your Monday Blues with FREE KSLS chilli seeds! 🌶 🔥

Mondays got you down? Well, we've got just the thing to turn that frown upside down!

The KS Lemon Starrburst (KSLS) pepper owes its existence to the popular pepper grower Khang Starr. In 2016, Khang decided to embark on a flavourful adventure by crossbreeding two beloved pepper varieties: the Bahamian Goat and the MOA Scotch Bonnet. The result of this spicy rendezvous was not one, but two delightful siblings—the Lemon Starrburst and its peach-ripening counterpart, the Peach StarrKist.

Historically, Khang Starr held a firm belief that the KSLS pepper’s seeds should be freely shared among pepper enthusiasts, never sold. His vision was one of community, where fellow growers could exchange seeds and cultivate this delightful variety without any financial transactions involved. The spirit of generosity and camaraderie was at the heart of his wishes.

However, as with any passionate community, opinions diverged. Some seed vendors have decided to defy Khang’s original wishes and began offering KSLS seeds for sale, sparking a heated debate among pepper lovers BUT other vendors, like ourselves, decided to honour Khang’s original vision.

Instead of profiting from KSLS, we offer it FREELY VIA OUR WEBSITE — a personal choice that reflects our commitment to preserving the pepper’s essence.

FUN FACT FRIDAY 🌶 🔥

Chilli peppers contain a chemical called capsaicin, which has natural pain-relieving properties.

Capsaicin works by:
🌶 Blocking pain receptors:
Capsaicin binds to pain receptors in the brain and spinal cord, reducing the transmission of pain signals.

🌶 Releasing endorphins:
Capsaicin stimulates the release of endorphins, the body's natural painkillers.

🌶 Reducing inflammation:
Capsaicin has anti-inflammatory properties, which can help reduce swelling and alleviate pain.

🌶 Interfering with pain pathways:
Capsaicin disrupts the production of a chemical called substance P, which transmits pain signals to the brain.

Capsaicin has been shown to be effective in relieving various types of pain, including muscle and joint pain, neuropathic pain (nerve pain), arthritis, migraines and more!

You can harness the pain-relieving power of chillies through consumption, applying topical creams or ointments containing capsaicin or taking capsaicin supplements (after consulting a healthcare professional).

It's important to start with small amounts and gradually increase the intensity to allow your body to adjust to the heat! 🔥
