Thanks And yup. Thats my plant. To have differnt pods on different branches. I would like to get green and red peppers. Ifi can get some 7pod evergreens it would be awesome. thats and red morugas would look sick!
pods should be identical. i think there is controversy over the genetics of the offspring of the parent plants... i dont know enough however to comment on that.
good job with the grafts btw.
Pods should hold true to whatever the scion piece is. In other words, the plant with the Douglah on top will yield Douglah pods. If it doesn't, it was never going to. The rootstock won't change the outcome of the pods, as their genes are determined by the piece that produces their flowers. I would be very interested to see Chinense varieties grafted onto Annuum rootstocks. I would think since Annuums tend to be quicker to fruit that perhaps it could improve the Chinene's vigor.
thats the logical conclusion to come to, however there is some obscure studies done in asia that suggest some genes are transferred. i dont think this is the consensus however. but who knows.
