  • When are peppers ready

    I have 4 types of peppers. Mini bell mix,cayenne(hot) ,californian wonder and romano mixed.

    1 pepper is about 5 cm long i think it could be californian wonder. I also have some Mini bells which are also quite big. If you are going to eat them green how can you tell if they are ready, not as they are big enough yet! I am realy tempted to eat them but i want to save some to ripen. Especially the mini belll as it will turn a chocolate colour!


    Any recipies for preserving them wuld be good as there are loas of flowers to come. But i have heard that they wont produce any fruit after a certain amount- is this true?

    Thanks!

    If you are going to eat them green, wait till they reach a size you're happy with, if you didn't like them that much the size they are, let them grow on a bit next time

      Ah well- ya see -I wasn't very sure about that either- so I bought red and yellow chillies!!!

      ....and red peppers!

      ...and then I realised you can eat them green!

          I tend to pick a few smaller when they're ready as I want to eat them and let others grow on and colour up later in the year.

          Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

          Which one are you and is it how you want to be?
