Mixed up peppers from farmers market

So I went to my farmers market to buy a bunch of peppers to try out. Except I mixed them up in the bag and forgot what they are. Can you guys please help me out? 
 
Among some of the names I do remember was carrot something, carolina or scoprin (I don't know if the carolina got mixed in here) scotch bonnet, and habanero.
 
Oh and 6 I just found out is a hybrid of cherry and something else and 7 is confirmed cherry.
 
Thanks in advance

6) inca red drop ?  7) Cherry bomb 8) cow horn 9) red bhut 10) yellow devils tongue 11) aji lemon drop
Hey thanks for ur imput. But I'm not sure that 8 is a cow horn. This pepper is about 4 inches or so, I think cow horns are about double that size

Added a scale for size
 
1) Red Scorpion (possible Butch T)
2) just a yellow scorp , possibly a Cardi
3) Orange Hab
4) Choco Hab, or possibly douglah (choc 7 pot)
5) carrot,
6)  I forget but I grew those before
7) Red Cherry
8) could be a bhut cross or some kind of cayenne, looks like a finger hot but smaller
9) Red Bhut
10)possible Fatalii could also be yellow devils tongue
11) lemon drop or other varity of yellow aji?
 
 
edit: I missed you saying you remember carolina , since I dont see a reaper, Im better that #8 is a carolina cayenne that crossed with a bhut
 
Since you got the pods at a farmers market, chances are they where open pollinated, so you might see discrepancies, and if they were grown in bulk chances are even more less of them being specific strains such as "brain strain" "butch t" etc..  but what do you have are definately some good looking scorps, bhut, and others.

Yeah I think your right as when I grew them they were that shape but larger, was it hot? number 2 from the original photo could also have been your scotch bonnet moa as I have had some pods come out shaped like that before too. But there can be a lot of variances if they were from open pollinated seeds and even if not sometimes some peppers are not completely stable and put off 2, 3, or 4 different phenotypes all from the same plant. I would say if there is a pepper you particularly enjoy from those that you would really want to try and grow out give the vendors here a look and purchase some seeds from them as the peppers you have could and probably are open pollinated so you may not get that pepper again. This way you don't waste time to end up possibly disappointed. Also avoid seeds from amazon and ebay as not all, but many are scams and you will just end up with green bell peppers or habeneros (many of us have all learned the hard way). Best of luck and welcome to THP!

Hey thanks for the input, yeah this farm was really well known for some high quality peppers. I wouldn't be surprised if he had bought some specific strains but yeah at this point it would be impossible to know. But either case my fingers is still burning just cutting them up, so much different than regular peppers. I'm way over my head lol
 
Oh and I tried number 8 and it was hotter than 9, assuming that 9 is a ghost pepper, I think its a hybrid because it did have a similar taste to it but man, the kick was much more intense

Its great to be here! Amazing the information and resources I can get here.
 
Oh yeah I tried number 8 and man it was spicy, real hot. Assuming 9 is a ghost, it was spicier than ghost. Maybe its a hybrid. Ah I understand, I would assume maybe the next few generations are mixed because of open pollination but I didn't think this one might have already been mixed. I think I'm gonna go back and ask them, I hope they don't mind.
 
Oh for sure, I was just thinking that. I bought some Carolina reaper seeds and a few others but I wanted to try a bunch of fresh peppers to narrow down what I want to grow. I'll post later and maybe a nice member might let me buy a variety of seeds to start my pepper obsession.
 
Thanks man!
