Bhut jolokia growing questions

[kishke]

Im growing these(in the pictures below) plants since around , I have 1 plant that as you can see grew really fast compared to the rest. At the start I grew them at a mini greenhouseI built(also in the pictures below).
So when that plant got bigger I took the green house to the window for about 1-2 hours(I removed the foil), It burned the other plants as you can see on the lower leaves.
Since then it's been over a month and they are still barely growing compared to the one plant which by now is starting to develop pepers.
I would like to know if anyone has a reason for why its so slow? And if so how can I treat them.

My second question is, as you can see the big plant has purple flowers and as I searched around it seems like bhut jolokia suppose to have white flowers, could it be a different pepper or its just a trait from the tabasco?

The big one is doesn't look like a Bhut Jolokia, more Annuum-ish to me. As for the little ones, they may have been hit by the does of sun, but they generally are slow growers, and if you are comparing them to the big one, they are not going to grow nearly as fast. If they are putting out new growth (however small it is), then they are moving in the right direction. What kind of light source do you have them under now?

Where did you get your plants or seeds?
Purple plant is not a bhut but a C. annuum of some sort

Is that an Explosive Embers? I got one that's substancially smaller but looks very much like that.
I am new to growing, but definately agree with Potawie, that's no Bhut. Sorry man, in either case its looks really healthy.

They are under 2 lights at the moment 50W and some flourscent room light bulb I'll post a picture when I'm home.

I got the seeds from ebay got surprised they even got past custom but who cares ^^. I guess 1 non bhut got tossed in or somthing.

 

[POTAWIE]

If they are from E-bay then I wouldn't expect much, unless of course you know the seller

 

[kishke]

Actually from my experience(no with seeds) ebay is pretty reliable.
The seeds came with some magnet which relate to to the seller I'll also post that when I'm home.

Also thanks everyone from your help.

Ok so I got the pictures, 1 light is 40w coil 360 lumen, the other is fluorescent 24w 1450 lumen.
Also I was wondering if it's a good time to start hardening the small plants and if so whats the best way considering I'm studying most week so I won't be able to expose the plants to the same amount of sunlight each day.

be weary of buying seeds on ebay. I would stick with a viable source like the hippyseed company, the chile pepper company or pepper petes. Bhut's have white flowers so i'm not sure what that plant is.

 

[kishke]

The others already guessed what it is.
Most of the places wont ship to israel and if they do the cost of the shipping just isnt worth it, I didn't mind taking the risk for the 5$ or somthing it cost me.
It's still seems the others are bhut's it that one was just a fluke, the bhut is a once in a life time experience so im not in that much of a hurry to suffer the wrath of one I still got plenty of years to get one growing ^^.

The purple plant in the first picture looks like my naga jolokia purple plants. I got the seeds from pepperlover.com.

Guess we will know what it is when the peppers are bigger.
