my guess is that they will turn red!

Do you need help identifying a 🌶?
Is your plant suffering from an unknown issue? 🤧
Then ask in Identification and Diagnosis.
Any ideas what these could be?

How big are the pods? I think from memory they look similar to the ones that I got that ended up turning out something different.
Still only small (maybe about 3cm in length) but they are still growing.

And like you mentioned before, the plant is very prolific. I think we may have a match!
yep if it is very prolific sounds like the same, definately not a Dorset Naga but some type of Hab or Carribean type. That was the best I came up with but didn't try finding out too much as I ended up ripping them up in anger! 
I can understand that! I'm feeling a tad bit like I could do the same!yep if it is very prolific sounds like the same, definately not a Dorset Naga but some type of Hab or Carribean type. That was the best I came up with but didn't try finding out too much as I ended up ripping them up in anger!
The only thing that is stopping me is that so far it is looking to be the most prolific plant I have grown to date and I'm curious to see how much it produces.
yeah you will get heaps of pods. I did end up saving about 1kg of pods.
Just an update....
In their green state, pods are very pale and some are growing longish:
Whatever it is, it's going off too:
Why can't any of the plants I actually want do that!?

Well, any ideas?
They have kind of been ripening to a dark orange/light red. I am going to leave a few on the plant to see if they eventually turn red or if that's their final colour.
(Big things some of them are too!)

If they go darker possibly a Habanero Ugandan Red ?
Possibly!
I've just been hitting up the ol' google and looks like it could be one of so many different varieties!
Think I might just call it "Mystery Red Chinense" for now....

Fo' sho'! Give me a few days to let some seeds dry and they'll be on their way.
These babies are open-pollinated but I think I have some of the original "Dorset Naga" seeds somewhere too so I'll send both just in case.
EDIT:
Don't know either yet if the ones I picked are fully ripe or not....
