As the title says, I hope I can get some help IDing these peppers! I bought them from my local farmer's market, and was told that they were probably ghost peppers. However, I have never seen ghost peppers with bottoms like these. Hope to get some insight on these peppers from you guys! Whether some ghost peppers do grow this way, or whether this is a totally different type of pepper.
 
Thank you! :)

Thanks for the suggestions! Haven't had a chance to taste them yet, as I just bought them.
 
I was pretty excited to find these, since the hottest peppers you can usually find around here are habaneros. Haha. I actually grew ghost peppers for the first time this year, and these look nothing like my ghost peppers. They are way more bumpy, and their bottoms look very different, so I did suspect that the person who sold them to me might be wrong about them being ghost peppers.

I’ll bet these will be a bit hotter than your ghosts. And good news, if you can grow ghosts where you live, you’ll probably be able to successfully grow even more types next season. Good find, and welcome to the forum.

Thanks for the helpful advice guys! I can't really differentiate some of the superhots with my untrained eye. Haha. It'd be pretty cool if they do turn out to be carolina reapers.

Also, thanks for that extra tip regarding variance kanikedude03. And congrats on the harvest, those are really nice peppers.
