• Do you need help identifying a 🌶?
    Is your plant suffering from an unknown issue? 🤧

Stabilizing for desired shape

`
Hey Jeff, AJ was posting about White Scorpions and this thread was mentioned, White Trinidad scorpion. I thought the similarity of one of the pods in post #11 noteworthy.

Couple years ago, had a plant that gave all pods that looked like a triple butt plug.  Not extra tasty or over the top hot or anything.  But the shape..... Oh I wanted to bring Satan's Butt Plug to the world.  Just like you said, offspring looked nothing like the mother.  Pods glued shut and bagged just to be sure.

This pod made me think of you.

*update:

I had grown out 25 plants from the seeds I collected from the tulip shaped pods. None of the plants reproduced the desired results. I don’t think it was a total loss though. I mean I like Moruga anyway. Plus it was a learning experience. Sometimes the best lessons come from failure.

Thats a pity but well done for trying anyway

Did you overwinter the parent plant of the pods you collected seeds from? Or is that gene gone now?

I didn’t overwinter it. But I’m ok with that. Very few pods actually had that trait.

My next project is a similar one, but with a different twist. This time more of the plant is showing the desired trait. It’s the “California Reaper “ (JPGS x Reaper) from Tyler farms. I was disappointed last season when very few produced reaper like shapes like their advertising. I took the best looking pod last season and grew it out again this season. Still crap. However one plant out of 10 looks promising, so I’ll give it another shot.
