The peppers in one Harvest grew so tall that they were smashed against the lights, which completely blocked off light from the rest of the plant.
So I did a 4 inch haircut across the top. That removed lots of blooms and a few green peppers.
Am hoping it pays off with lots of new blooms and fruit.

Okay, I believe this unlabeled pepper is a Sweet Heat.

No. I had it wrong. These are the Sweet Heats. And one is ripe and one is almost ripe.

I picked the ripe pepper today.
I decided that instead of waiting for them all to ripen at once, I will pick them as they ripen. That should produce more peppers, give me an extended harvest and provide a steady supple of peppers to slice for salads and use in cooking.
I hope.

I have learned to take a nibble first before using them!
