Pepper progress
That looks to be... what, about 33% ripe? EXCITING!
Seriously, I am way too excited about this little pepper. But I've never seen one ripen before! It's interesting how the color spreads from the top down; it doesn't all ripen at once. Back before when it was still stubborn and green, I'd thought about cutting it off and letting it ripen on the counter. Glad I read up on it before I did so, because it wouldn't have worked. Peppers don't do that.
