Too hot to be chile?

I’m getting fruit on some of my pepper plants already!

This one is “Zitava”, which I believe is often used to make paprika. I’m going to have to have a go at that if I get enough fruit.

And this is “Hungarian Black”. Sounds like it should be something recreational and consciousness-expanding (perhaps it is?), but is not that different from a Jalapeno. The black colour is not an indication that the fruit is fully ripe however. At full ripeness they are the most amazing glassy red.
