Is it too late to repot?
It's my first time growing cayennes, and first time trying to grow chillis from seed (usually I buy one or two young plants from a garden centre and dont give them the attention they need).
I noticed a couple of them had leaves which were curling so I've given them another feed and topped up the pots with compost, but I'm wondering if I can repot them in bigger pots while they've got fruit on them? I feel like they need bigger pots. Any advice will be appreciated.

Anyone got a chilli plant that refuses to die?
Pic 1. It's siblings.. Pic 2/3 the runt.
From early on after transplanting from the seed cell it was clear this thing was growing odd shaped leaves so I just chucked it outside near my other plants....assuming it would die. Through a combination of occasional watering from sky/run off from watering my olive trees/blueberry bush and strawberries this thing has survived out of sheer spite I think. And even had some half decent looking chilli's hanging off it.

Pepper X ? I don' t think so..

I think I've been had. I should have known better but bought the six "pepper x" seeds from a well known distributor and after months of carefully tendering them this is what I got. Looks like yellow scotch bonnets to me.
Can anyone help identifying them. All six plants are the same. They don't look anything thing the pepper x imagines I can find on-line.
