What is your understanding of the use of question marks in English?HP22BH said:
Oddly, this was a topic specificaly related to growing two different peppers in close proximity and getting a pod variation. not a question of ID.
I know what the pod is.

I know cross polination with have imediate impact on taste or heat, but does it also have imediate effects on physical attributes? I have a few jalapeno plants growing in close proximity to this serrano plant. I took a slightly smaller pod from the same branch. It had slightly thicker walls, the sweet green jalapeno taste and the typical serrano burn. over all, slightly different, but good.

As Nightshade mentioned. Cross pollination will only show crossed traits in the plants grown out from seed from the current years pods in the following year. The current years pods will not be affected in any way. Are you sure the seeds you grew this serrano from are pure? Could you have mislabeled?
