Potential name changes ?

Hi All,
 
I've been doing the rounds to find out what 7-Pot hybrids were perhaps F2/F3 a few years back, and thus maybe ready to come out as "stable" in the near future.
 
I see the 7 Pot Rust and 7 Pot Evergreen mentioned for example,
 
I'm not sure about the first - I see a website with .dk in the address that is selling it, but did the name generally change to "Burgundy"? (The colour looks remarkably similar).
 
In terms of the second, a review from Mr. FBI says it's a hybrid, but I don't see it mentioned much anymore. I wonder if it changed from an evergreen to a particular ripening colour as the F numbers increased, and thus no longer deserves the name of evergreen ?!
 
General thoughts anyone ?
 
Regards,
 
Tim
 
 
 
as for if there hybrids I don't know I kind of always thought they where "Phenotypes"
 
I never heard of 7 POT RUST but I remember was just talking with some on here over the winter about Mustard colored peppers as I helped develop 2 species in the last 4 years
 
TRINIDAD SCORPION MUSTARD
 
BHUT JOLOKIA MUSTARD
 
but just the same 7 POT EVERGREEN was mentioned so unless the name changed since then I would say its alive and well somewhere, sorry im not sure anymore who it was that developed it but maybe they will drop in an let us know
the 7 POT BURGUNDY  a separate Phenotype species and is not the same as the EVERGREEN I can tell you this for certain I grew the BURGUNDY last season
 
hope this helps a little
 
thanks your friend Joe
 
Hi there Joe,
 
Thanks for weighing in with some useful info.
 
Please forgive my loose terminology with respect to "hybrid" and "phenotype". I remember the "Evergreen" was specifically mentioned as a hybrid, by which i understand to be 7 Pot x something else rather than a natural colour variation (which is in some ways a phenotype, right?)
 
With respect to the mustard types you mention, I have seed for the Scorp and waiting on delivery of the Bhut, but I think it's now a bit late to be sowing in the southern hemisphere. Looking forward to next year then because those ones you mentioned are rippers !
 
Regards,
 
Tim

at least from my own experiences a hybrid and a phenotype can be one in the same but im not so sure it always is, im not a geneticist so im not entirely sure?? :think: can anyone else chime in with some in depth info?? :D
