harvesting THP Pick For Harvest Day

Very nice!  Question for you:  This is the first time I have grown Datils.  Mine don't look like yours.  Yours look authentic.  Mine look like Yellow Bhuts.  I got the seed from Tradewinds.  Is there a bumpy variety of Datils?

You wouldn't be the first to get a crazy cross from Tradewinds. Although they were good to deal with and offered replacement seeds, it sucks to grow a bhut for 3 months just to realize you have some weird hab cross instead.

Mine on most of my plants look like the top pic, and not as smooth as the harvest.
 
If yours look like the second pic, you probably have yellow bhut.

Yeah, mine look like your top pic.  I also have yellow bhut growing, and it does look a bit different.  There is a definite difference in the leaves between each plant.  The yellow bhut has definite "bhutish" leaves.  The datil does not.

Tell me about it!  My Aji Dulces have two different phenotypes and both about Habanero heat!  My annuums from them are growing true, though.
 
I am thinking of crossing a few varieties with Datil this year. I am pretty sure there is no one else in St. Augustine doing it.
 
Datil Scorpion perhaps?
 
Nice pick! I'm still waiting.. Ugh.. I have more than enough for myself to eat in a week on my plants and grab a couple a day to eat but no good loads yet. Almost exactly 6 months now... Hopefully its coming in a week or so. until then keep up the good work!
