Honesty I was considering keeping the four or six best plants from my own late sprouts and keeping them indoors as a pet project.

If you keep them in cups or small pots then you can still put them outdoors for more optimal growth, but they will need more shade as full-sun can be too brutal on smaller plants / less established root structures. Keeping them indoors works too. I'm doing that for many. Hell, I've kept plants in those red beer-pong cups for well over an entire year indoors without issue. Last season I planted in a raised bed what was probably a 1.5 yr old Aji Limon in a red solo cup and it ended up being my most productive plant despite being totally stunted in growth for a year.

Thanks for the J out. I have them under a grow light right now. I'll probably keep them outside blurring the summer one bugger but keep the best of then indoors over the winter.

This year with all the new varieties I'm growing a new favorite I'm sure will emerge and knock off the chocolate fatalii as my #1. I'm growing several new Aji's and with the bahamian goat, MOA's and scotch bonnets I'm sure there will be a new favorite pepper for 2016.

I am being tentatively cautious with chocolate varieties after my bad experience with chocolate beauty bell.
So 2 of the plants that I orderd are chocolate habanero & chocolate scotch bonnet .
I plan to make a jelly using six of each.
I might be in the I don't like fatalii's camp .
I know that I don't care for the white ones form pepperlover but the chocolate sound promising one for next year.

It was being sold by Park Seeds and it has been out of stock since 2012.   ;-(
 
For all I know it could be alive and well, but being marketed under a different name by a different vendor.  I do know that seeds that I saved from the hybrid did not grow true at all (confirming that it is indeed a hybrid.)

I did some research since the Pinocchio Nose Cayenne caught my interest & found it in the UK.https://www.victoriananursery.co.uk/Chilli_Pepper_Seed_Pinocchios_Nose/
The Joe's long cayenne is similar to Pinocchio Nose but I don't think it's a hybrid .
So it could be one of the parents to Pinocchio Nose.
I pick up chili De Abrol at the local store yesterday.
 
Never got my hands on any(neither seeds nor peppers), but as far as looks go, i think that Pink Tiger is the best looking pepper

That is good to know thanks for the info !
 
One of my favorites is the Aji Penec I over wintered.
This plant survived countless heavy aphid attacks while my moa bonnets both Yellow an Red gave up the ghost.


Another favorite is Hawaii Beach a scotch bonnet type
I messed up the pruning job plus it got hit as well with some aphids but it hanged in there .
I will be happy for just one low for the next generation.
I then plan to cut this last limb an let the little trunk grow out since it basically a bonsai now.
