Which variety are the peppers right from the Chocolate Habs? I had a plant that produced exactly the same pods but had it tagged as Trinidad Seasoning Red... didn't strike me as a Chinense but was a Annuum. They had a sweet taste to them, no heat, at least not noticeable.
 
Hey Meatfreak....to the right of the Chocolate Habs are the Charleston Hots.... We met with Phil Dukes, the developer at the Charleston, SC Vegetable Lab many years ago. That story is on our website.
To the right of our Charleston Peppers is the Giant Jalapeno Peppers.
Bottom left is Flourescent Purple....to the right of them is the Yellow Mourga.
Hope that helps.

Thanks for the info, Joe. I looked the information up on your site, saw that it had more heat then a Cayenne so mine is not a Charleston Hot. Although it does look a lot like it, the ones I had were just sweet with no heat, thin walled.

Meatfreak,
That is definitely not a Charleston Hot Pepper. One unique characteristic of the Charleston Hot Pepper is that the leaves tend to be a yellowish at times...not a sickly yellow like a diseased plant would have...but a pale yellow. (When I first grew it maybe 25 years ago...I thought it had a fungus or bacteria...but it's just it's nature) Also, the pepper turns from green to yellow to orange to red. I have a cool pic that I'll post to identify it.
When we met Phil Dukes at the USVL in SC, he had received over 50,000 requests for seeds due to the Charleston being in the media with a story about how he created it. (He gave us seeds from his original pepper). Back in the day 50,000 requests was a HUGE response because SuperHots weren't on the radar screen and Habaneros were just a pepper that maybe you saw at your grocery store occasionally...particularly if you lived in and etnic market like the Southwest. Other than a few hobbyists, you couldn't even find Habanero seeds. Believe it or not, people considered the Charleston a very Hot Pepper when it made national news.

One thing about the Charleston, it is easy to differentiate it from similar Chiles. It's in a league all by itself. More details on the Charleston Hot Pepper at http://www.pepperjoe...ollection/gifts
