Peppercini maybe? I don't know much about pepper plants, but i know that if it's a mix of two, then it might come out looking a deformed, but they look good :)

I doubt it's a pepperoncini. It's a superhot hybrid of some sort. I grow moruga and butch t scorpions, but they are 15 miles and 50 miles away; isolated. It has a scorpion like tail. I'm thinking a butch t cross.

It needs to go. I hope, if it's something, somebody posts back before it's compost.

I'm new to pepper plants, but if you have more, then you know what you're doing, good luck

It takes two to tango. I only grow one variety at this plot. Blows my mind.

I've grown wax peppers before and turned out great. I picked up a Jalapeno yesterday and transplanted to a bigger pot , good soil and moisture, but droopy leaves, new for me so just keeping an eye on it.

It does resemble a Butch T, but why would you pull the plant now? You obviously already have pods, so the cross pollination is already done with the surrounding plants (assuming there's normal insect activity). Looks like your isolation has already been breached. Then again, it could just be a freak pod on that plant. I'd leave it, and isolate the entire plant (bag the whole thing with tulle) to be safe. Why compost it? I do understand where you're coming from, though

Then again, you'd have to go around and pluck all of the open flowers on all of your other plants too, to keep them pure

That's the problem. I have over a thousand peppers on the 56 plants I have at this plot. The biggest plants are 3 ft+. And I've got thousands of flowers.

Man, I wish I could be of more help. I'd still say to isolate the plant and pray that it's just a freak pod. Sorry

Thanks, man. Btw there's about 4 pods on there just like that. I had noticed one last weekend but, like you said, thought it was just a freak. I guess that's the end of this isolation attempt. I know the indian restaurants will still enjoy the spice.

Hang in there. Who knows, maybe someone else will post a different idea? You never know. In the meantime, green or not, I'd chomp down on one of those pods and wash it down with some Fireball to take your mind off it for a few minutes ;)

It could be a Red or Yellow Mushroom pepper. They have that rounded shape. Now if you used the seeds from your Scorpion/Ghost, it may be a cross. You wont know until ripe and find out the heat on it.

Probably just pod variation. Even with a variety such as a Bhut, which for the most part, is pretty stable, many of these new varieties that have popped up in the last decade or so are just now coming to a point that stabilization can be considered "stable." And though Butch T's and Bhuts have long been considered stable, their relative stability is nothing compared to say a jalapeno, where hundreds of years is involved.

No, a good friend (interestingly, also a Rob B.) is growing orange mushrooms. This was last Sunday:

Different pepper.

I could think it's a freak thing but I've now counted about 10 pods on that plant with the mushroom cloud around the belly. I ate one with lunch and it has NONE of the bhut "taste."

Actually reminded me of a Hab. But it was green, so who knows what it will turn out to be/do.

TAZMANIAN HABANERO

This is one of the most awesome new introductions that we've had in years. This unusual Habanero is Ultra-HOT and has a large mid-section with a sharp, pointy bottom. It's a Pepper Joe original and is very tasty as well as hot. Being in the 'Chinense' family it has the Habanero punch but grows on a low, bushier plant. Add this one to your assortment.$3.99 (20 Seeds)Quantity:

• i just found this and it looks like the one you have, i don't know if it might be the same blend, but i've been researching it today to learn more

Interesting. Wow. Mind blowing.

In doing some research I also came across this guy: http://www.worldcrops.org/crops/Aji-dulce.cfm

It may be scotch bonnet . We use it a lot in Jamaica and other Caribbean places

We have some too and I'm pretty sure they're scotch bonnets

I am not sure of the name for this type of pepper, but I can assure you that it is very hot, and we use it in Haiti as well. Birds or other animals might have transported the seeds while migrating.

Thank you for this info.
