Rob, et al-
I had a similar situation with some wild chinense that grew up against the
south side of my house. The side against the house was more orange than red,
and considerably milder. I have also seen it in an Aji that poked through a
crack in the garden fence and stuck out into the alley. It never got direct
sunlight and was milder than the other pods on the same plant.
