Cannot distinguish plants

Hey,

I bought 6 Carolina and 6 Ghost Chili Pepper plants last fall and raised inside over the winter. Well with them being moved around and 9 not making it I have 3 plants and cannot figure out which is which, any suggestion??

Thanks,

Kevin

Wait until the peppers appear. They are similar but the ghost is usually does not have the tail. The reaper looks like a wrinkled version of a Trinidad Moruga scorpion only fatter.

I’ve never grown the Carolina Reaper so I might be wrong, but I’ve always had the impression that it is a bigger plant (bigger leaves and height) than ghosts....
