*pokes grow log*
What I have growing and producing flowers right now are WM brand Long thin Cayennes (one pod is currently about 7 inches! quite impressed considering the plants mother is terrible...) Jalapeno, thai sun and (i think) orange Habanero. I didn't write it down, but I am pretty sure that those went into the ground about 3 weeks ago... They've been in the garage since germination, which was started the last week of Dec, and culminated during the first week of the new year. Then after the last frost date, which was IIRC the second, or third week in feb, I planted out.
I have a variety of super hots growing, but none large enough to produce pollen yet.
I also have a ton of annuums, wilds, fructescens, etc... We really need to begin fleshing out our goals though before we start crossing... What color do we want? thick wall? thin wall? many seeds? few seeds? gnarly pods (like a douglah)? like a brain strain? like a Butch T? Like Moruga? What about taste?
So far we know we want something around habanero heat(?) and fast... Pablanos/anchos, are not half bad either... good tasting green or red (better red I think).
Jalapenos can have much higher yields though - 20-50 tons per acre, and some (big early) are still quite early...

Bear in mind not all of them are listed (there are 20 possibilities that are in a seed mix I'm growing out 100 seeds for...) and not all of them (though about 50) are done germinating.
The more complicated we make it, the more seeds we will need to grow out.
Each successive trait exponentially increases the number of plants we have to grow out to find ONE containing ALL of the traits we are looking for...
For instance if we wanted just a yellow coloration, we would need to grow out 4, but if we wanted yellow coloration, and a particular growth habbit, we might have to grow out 16, and if we wanted to add a third gene (TMV resistance?) 64 plants! A fourth? well you get the picture...
This link is one I found for tomatoes, but the principal remains.
