Do you need help identifying a 🌶?
Is your plant suffering from an unknown issue? 🤧
Then ask in Identification and Diagnosis.

Maybe if you're munching on peppers while gardening and get pepper oil on your tomatoes while handling them 
I grow tomatoes near my peppers [most seasons] and I think i've done that a couple times. Spicy tomatoes are yummy.
Otherwise they would need to cross and bear some pepper-tomatoe hybrid. That would be awesome. Alas only in dreams.

Grafting chile onto tomato.
Just like most other stem-grafted plants, there is a root stock and a scion. Only the fruit of the scion would form after a successful graft. That is unless you allow suckers to grow out from the root stock which I suppose may produce small inferior fruit.

Never for me.
Also, my tomato diseases don't affect my peppers. And vice versa.

Yeah its been done. You can graft tomatoes, eggplants, and peppers onto poisonous plants in the nightshade family as well. Yet you're not going to get poisonous tomatoes, eggplants, or peppers as a result.

Duuuuuuuuuude! so true. I liked it, just to unlike. I Friggen HATE hornworm! I had one the size of a hotdog eat half of a one and a half pound tomato (pineapple) in one night. And its one thing if they mess with my maters. If i find em the peppers they're getting tortured on their way out.
I had the most insane hornworm infestation possible my first year of really growing peppers. I had around 60 4-6 gallon buckets going all in my backyard. Didn't have any tomatoes. The following years I had tomatoes with my peppers.... haven't had any hornworms except for that first year. ymmv.
When the plants are still young I take my thumbnail and actually scrape the little bastards out of the leaf. You can typically see a yellow or tan-colored spot at the end of the trail where the larvae are located. I scrape over that until the yellow bugger pops out and squish him good. After the plants get about 2.5 feet tall I stop worrying about it. It is almost exclusively cosmetic damage after they have enough leaves growing.
