I made a dumb mistake and ordered seeds without paying attention to the shipping time.... ANYWAYS, this is my "Habanero" pepper plant... Obviously this is NOT a habanero pepper plant.... Does anybody have a clue as to wtf I'm growing here?

In this pic the pepper is only about 1 - 1.5 inches long. IMG_8014.JPG

Lol, same thing happened to me.
The seeds were probably hybrids and reverted back to the jalapeño plant.
Im pretty sure they are jalapeneos, mine are turning red.

image.jpg Updated picture... Any other opinions? It's definitely a hot pepper, took one off and tasted it, mighty hot.

So, these appear to be growing to the size of Anaheim peppers. The biggest are around 5 inches long, and pretty hot. Too big to be a jalapeño, spicier than a jalapeño, and jalapeños and usually a dark green, I have a jalapeño plant right next to this plant actually... I'm still at a loss to what this pepper is.

They are delicious, sliced up a couple for a dish last night and the flavor was good.

I still have no idea what these are, they are hotter than jalapeno's, not by a drastic amount, but enough to notice... I honestly feel like these are an anaheim pepper/habanero hybrid or something. Who knows.

Poblanos are a DARK green, a bit fatter and shorter than these... Also, maybe this will help in identifying these peppers... No color change. I've left these peppers mostly untouched hoping to see a color change to red or orange or something... The peppers just started to rot on the plant after a while, no color change at all, just stays a light green.

You sure those are cayenne peppers? I grew cayenne peppers last year and they were skinny, thin walled peppers that turned deep red. Some of these mystery peppers have started to turn red, but they don't get full red. I actually made hot sauce the other day and used some of these mystery peppers, jalapenos, and 4 Bhut Jolokia (ghost chili).... Crazy hot, but also crazy good hot sauce.
