identify this chili for me please.

its a mystery chili that was labeled the "chili" which lead me to ask... "ok i know its a chili but what kind of chili is it?" I know its not a Jalapeno since i am also growing pino's and this plant is much lighter than the pino's so here is a picture of the plant and pod.

i have worked out that it is a capsicum annuumn or however its spelled. but not the exact name.

There are many different kinds of jalapeno.

fresno?

dont know. seems like a likely guess they look similar.

More than one flower per node, might be a cross with chinense in it.

cool so that would mean that they might be hotter than the average annuunm?

Could be, depends on which parents genes was more dominant, but heat tends to come out above.

If I had to guess I would say a cayenne or tobasco of some type crossed with a habanero or some other large blunt pod in the chinense family.

But thats a total guess, I could be way off.

would the pods being ripe help identify them? if so i guess when they ripen i will post pics. but untill then this is the best shot i have of it.

 

[N_FF]

well that time has come the pod is ripe and here it is any ideas what it is?

 

[moyboy]

It's definately a Jal/Fresno/Hung. Hot Wax crossed with something else so It really won't be identified to easy....

It's ripened to a lighter red then the average Jal and has no crazzing like a ripe Jal

????????

What's it taste like? heat level?

 

[N_FF]

will do tomorow.
