breeding-crossing Odd as HeXL cross varient

Out of my F1 native chiltepin / reaper crosses I ended up with 32 plants I put into the garden.  A dozen are producing fruit faster than I can use that look like this and are VERY hot.

I have two that are producing these pods and while fewer, they mature much quicker.  Beside it is a gold cayenne seed and the tip of a needle.

I was thinking of pulling the plants out as stunted until I tried one of the pods.  I spit it out within a few seconds and its still burning.  Now drying some pods to see if they can germinate.
