My husband has done a little reading on growing hot peppers, and he tells me that this one is ready to pluck (and the longer we wait, the hotter it will get).
I was not expecting it to be ripe yet, because it is so small — about the size of a store-bought Serrano pepper.
But my tomatoes are a little small too, so I am just going to assume that’s normal.
Almost ready! And the one next to it (behind the leaves) is starting to turn yellow.







We always have the same issues with peppers…it seems they’re always so small, but they’re ready! I guess we’re just used to the humungo Wal-mart ones.
