So my uncle was able to shed some light on my pepper question. He loves hot things and his garden didn't produce anything this year. I keep telling him that year after year of tomatoes and peppers has probably sucked the ground dry of nutrients and he needs to add lye to the ground. A soil test would confirm or disprove this. At the moment though he's pouting and claiming he's done gardening. We shall see...
Anyway, I took him some peppers and he took one look at them and said "Oh, those are habaneros. Except they should be yellow." An image search confirmed his assertions.

Well, don't I feel stupid now. :) Seriously, I can't believe I bit into a habanero. No wonder my mouth was on fire for an entire day!
