Maily doing it out of interest as I can only imagine they pepper I had ( long sweet pepper ) was a hybrid so I am expecting different results.
But as far as genetics go, are they individual to each seed or are all of her seeds in the peppers predisposed to a genetic code?
TLDR: I am wondering if growing hybrids will result in multiple different varieties or will they all be the same?

I had a great jalapeño plant growing last season. My first harvest, I pulled out 4 or 5 beautiful peppers. I took them in to cook something with them and got zero heat. The next harvest, I pulled one off and took a bite of it raw only to find out it tasted like a green pepper.
That was the day I learned they can genetically modify the plant for low to no heat.
I was flabbergasted and pissed I had waisted my time with such a generic freak.
I bought some red thai peppers last year just to try that and they grew great and had good heat. Saved those seeds and started some for this season. These ones germinated great too and just starting on their second set of leaves.
I want to start a garden
It’s always me procrastinating
