Carolina Reaper X Moruga = Brainstrain?

So that is not a reaper pod? Moruga Pod that developed after I polinated it with my Carolina Reaper plants pollen

It is a moruga? Yes

If that is a TS Moruga plant, then yes, that is a TS Moruga pod.

Think of seeds as babies and look at it this way... when a woman gets pregnant, her genetics don't change... she doesn't become a mix of herself and the father, nor does she turn into the father. The same is with plants. The mother plant stays true to her genetics regardless of who has pollinated her. The seeds inside her are the mixed genetics. Grow them out and that's when you will see the results. ;)
 
Also, since pepper flowers are self-fertile, unless you removed the anthers from the mother flower, the seed from that pod will likely be a mix of pure moruga and moruga/reaper hybrids. This is pretty good video on breeding peppers: http://www.youtube.c...&v=rM9porsseQo#!
