Thanks habjolokia but I already know how to cross pollinate. I was wondering more specifically how genetics work through generations of crossing.

Ahhh ok sorry about that, the specifics on each generation F1, F2, F3 and ect..... Most reaearch I've come across covers up to F8 before they consider it a stable chili. But this is mostly information from pepper blogs and I would have to find scientific articles. Will let you know if I run across any. I hope someone on here has that info and shares.

This article may be useful to you.
