By definition they are ghostβs peppers π€£
Looks great! I might get Frost tonight I will show you my haul (most mine are still green)
Ooh gorgeous π€
I've had a few ripen but most are still green.
We're in the middle of spring here, so there's plenty of time for them to ripen.
Those like pure fire when you comp on them
They're Cheyenne's, so have a little bit of heat.
What do you mean by comp on them? Compost?
The secret to growing peppers I've found is to cut them back & keep them alive but dormant over winter. Didn't get much from this one last year but it's covered with fruit already & should produce all the way through to autumn.
We don't really get frosts here, so I don't need to project them.
Spelling is not my strong suit chomp.
I get my first frost tonight :(
depending on your growing climate you may need to start them inside under lights sometime in January for northern climates and transplant much more mature plants outside once last frost has passed for the season in order to have enough heat units to ripen
the fact that your brassicas are doing well hints that you have cooler temps and lower light, great for brassicas not so much for ripening peppers
