Chili Identification help??

[omega]

I bought seeds from Pepperlover back in December 2011 that were supposed to be red Trinidad Scorpions, however one of my plants are producing these yellow pods. I'm actually excited get a surprise, but disappointed because I trusted these to be true seeds. I'll have to tell you that the heat level of these pods are by far hotter than the Trinidad scorpions that are growing beside it. Could they be Yellow scorp Morugas? Taste and heat are so awesome that I need to know what they are so I can grow some next year. Thanks

They are as big as golf balls

If they were in the same seed pack then most likely just a cross of some kind not a different plant.

[font="Calibri""]They're not a Morouga, but could very well be a Yellow Scorp. I grew a couple of types last season that look similar. [/font]

They look like yellow scorpions to me.

If it was an accidental cross then f1 pods would most likely be dominant red color. Maybe just a simple error occured, but I don't know of any yellow pods hotter than red scorpions.

They don't look like my red scorpions, but that doesn't mean anything. Every plant looks different in it's own way. I've labeled them as mystery scorpions, and will grow them next year for sure. Whatever they are, I love them!

Its the little point at the end that tells its a scorpion right?

Sorry don't quite get this mobile version yet. Wanted to add..
Or is it the point on what looks to be another pepper growing out of the first that shows its a scorpion?

why not just over winter the plant or save some seeds

I can send you a pod and you decide for yourself. They are nasty hot!!!

Yes zen...definitely saving the seeds. Don't think I will overwinter this one.

If it is a great plant, why not wait till the very end of the season, then just grab a bunch of clippings and clone it at the end of season. By the time they are big (if you limit the light and occasional trimming) they should be ready next season when you are. Chances are if F1 then saving the seeds might not get you what your looking for even if you did isolate the donor pods as these will be F2.
Heck, I'm no expert.. just an idea from what all I've been reading and what I've been able to do with a small jar of Clonex is amazing.
