Starting in netted coir in 5x10 trays with heat mats:

The seeds were labeled Large Scorpion.

I have two other Large Scorpion plants, from the same packet of seeds, but the pods are red. The red ones look most like the upper right pod
 
I did not know a brown Large Scorpion existed?

Spicegeist said:
Wow, nice assortment!  Do you have a favorite of this group?
 
The Primo.
 
Huh, very cool.  You going to grow the seed from these brown pods out?  It could be a mutation, but it could also just be that seed from different pods were mixed into the seed, and one of them was a cross...
 
Does the Primo have a bhut-like aroma to it?

Yes, I am saving the seeds from the one I mentioned.
 
The Primo has an aroma that somewhat reminds me of a Bhut, but not as intense.
 
This afternoon's harvest:
 
Top left - Caramel and brown Madballz

EDIT:
 
Got bored, made another pass through the pepper patch:
 
Left - Large Scorpion
 
Upper Right - VV7 Scorpion
 
Lower Center - Barackapore (very small for some reason)
 
Lower Right - Butch T (also small)
 
Right Center - a lone Reaper I found hiding

A small pick this morning, the season is nearly over:
 
Top Left - supposed to be King Naga. Most have a 'Moruga-like' look, some have spikes like Bhuts. I am not sure what they are.
 
Remainder of top row, left to right- Red Brain, Yellow Brain, and what was supposed to be Douglahs.
 
Center row, left to right - VV7 Scorpion, Orange 7-Pot, Bhut Jolokia, Douglah.
 
Bottom row, left to right - Large Scorpion, Brown Large Scorpion, Yellow Douglah.
 
The three Douglahs all came from the same seed pack. I grew two Douglah last year from the same seed, both were brown.

From this morning:
 
Top left - Jay's Peach Ghost Scorpion
 
Top center - Brown Large Scorpion
 
Top right - Orange Douglah
 
Center - Primo
 
Bottom left - Another mystery; this plant was from a pack of Brown Moruga seeds, see more below.
 
Bottom center - White Bhut
 
Bottom right - VV7 Scorpion

Another picture of the 'Brown Moruga':

First, they are obviously red, and the only one with a Moruga like 'tail' is the second from the left. All the others look similar to Butch T, in my opinion, except several appear quite elongated.
 
This has been quite a year for unexpected variants among my plants.
 
Wow - interesting and varied grow this season.  Nice work!
 
I notice your bhuts came from RefiningFire - I've had some nice stuff from him.
Where did you source the rest of your seeds?

Thanks, I just put them in dirt and gave them water when they needed it, the rest is not up to me...
 
 
I also bought seeds from pepperlover.com. Jim and Judy are my only sources.
