the end of sept, and peppers are coming in fast and furious- cayenne,serrano, yellow hots, jalapeno, georgia flame, ghosts, and even the reapers... and check out the weird growing pattern of these reapers- '3' pics , 2 look weird, and the 3rd is a ripe reaper on the same plant
Those are weird looking! Are they from saved seeds?

Paper lanterns are coming in fast.

2nd year growing hot peppers. Last year I had one jalapeno plant that netted me a gallon of tequira style slices.

This year I have 2 Sugar Rush Peach that have a ton of peppers formed. I'm waiting for them to ripen which takes a long time. I plan on making my first hot sauces with them. A pineapple one and a blueberry one, both lacto-fermented.

They're significantly hotter than a jalapeno, but not quite a habanero heat. I'm pretty excited.

Are green and red bell peppers sold in American supermarkets GMO, i.e. the seeds no good ?

I dried some seeds and also gave them a day in the freezer.

But so far, no sprout.

the tomato seeds that I dried did sprout.

Is it flowering? If it is, and you're not seeing fruit set, you might try some hand pollinating. If it's just a bunch of leaves and no flowers, probably too much N.
Also to help Put a fan in front of the plants once a week if not always... Big Help

It did flower but nothing appeared, hand pollination with such tiny flowers would be difficult at best.
I haven't added any fertiliser so I don't think nitrogen would be a problem.

It's outdoor in a shadehouse so a fan is out due to rain.
