Likewise, I'm curious. This year I'm growing shishito, yellow hot, cayenne, and habanero.

I have these from rareseeds, idk how well they'll do. They look fine at the moment, they just haven't grown much which I assume is from the 105+ temps.

Saw the thumbnail, came to the comments to find out why your carrots are oily, left disappointed.

Do you have to take measures to separate the varieties of peppers? Do they cross-pollinate or something?

My ex-father-in-law grew some hot peppers that were disappointingly mild, and blamed some sort of cross-pollination from the mild peppers next to them. I have no idea whether that is a legitimate claim, though

Peppers do cross pollinate, but that has no effect on the current fruits, just plants grown from the seeds of those fruits.

If all the fruit was weaker than anticipated, that is the genetics of the seeds he planted. Fruit can have a variation in different spots on the plant in heat, but the mild pepper next to it had no effect on that.
