    As a grower of peppers, my experience is the greener, the hotter, not the other way around. Probably because the seeds are not mature yet and so they are not ready to be dispersed until then. I have experienced this with jalapeños, seranos, tabascos, pequin peppers, and Thai chilies; especially the Thai. Of course in 2011, I discovered that drought also concentrates the heat (and the flavor).

    It depends on the pepper. Color's not really a good gauge. For example, she ate the cayenne pepper green. A green cayenne pepper's not ripe, and it's going to be considerably milder that way.

    They ate the cayenne green, and then were surprised that it wasn't very hot. That's because it was unripe, _and_ undried. A ripe cayenne pepper is red, not green, and they're typically used dried, whether you grind them to powder or not. So no, a green cayenne pepper's not going to be anywhere close to its normal heat.
