I love these little mini bell peppers, so I germinated the seeds from one and now I have about 30 pepper plants. Has anyone germinated seeds from these peppers, or know if they are hybrids? Curious if they will be genetically the same or what I might end up with.

    Pretty sure most commercial varieties are hybrids, so I would assume these are too. That said, I did something similar last year, growing about 16 plants from seeds out of a bag of grocery store “mini sweet peppers,” and all but two of them ended up being mini sweet peppers as shown in the picture, in red, orange, or yellow. Of the two that grew as something else, one was a bit bigger pointy type of sweet pepper (stayed green until first frost, so no idea what color it would’ve ended up), and the last one was thin-walled, pointy, a bit spicy, and red when mature.
