A lot of cross pollination questions on the site right now. Most years, I grow a pepper patch of mixed sweet & hot peppers - with the two often directly adjacent - and have not observed any heat in the sweet peppers. I don't entirely discount the possibility that crossed seeds might possess some heat... but sweet peppers are not generally eaten without cleaning them. If there were such heat, I would expect to feel it or smell it during cleaning, which has not been the case.

Check out my page: http://members.gardenweb.com/members/exch/nick1st I am looking for pretty much any variety of bean, pea, hot pepper, or squash that I don't already have. I have many seeds to offer in exchange. Thanks!

i have some freshly harvested seeds from a very hot pepper with heat similar to a Habanero.. but it isn't a C. Chinense. It is Capsicum frutescens, Hawaiian native super-hot. I also have some orange habanero seeds, and a few other pepper varieties I can share. Check my tradelist. :) I would like some Nyagous tomato seeds, or if you don't have those anymore, a SASBE would be ok too.

Hi Lori - I may have some peppers for you next month!! I am doing a few trades but one (tomato/pepper swap) won't be done until the end of Nov. If I forget to contact you, and there are some you still need, check my list in Dec. Have a good day - Deb
