Peppers. Rainbow Mix


Peppers. Rainbow Mix

any one know about peppers, my husband has grown these and they are all a very pale yellow, we don't know if they are ready, looked on the internet and it shows this particular plant as a real mix of colours but ours are all the same as these, I have never seen peppers this pale and this colour,

Don't really know much about peppers Yorkshire,other than they taste great.
I have had green peppers that started to turn red maybe from over rippening but not sure.These look more of a lemon yellow colour which seems perculiar.
I eat peppers a lot and have never seen them this colour.You'll have to let us know if they taste like lemons....lol
As Bizzyb says though...an excellent photo and still life study

Wouldn't worry , they are perfect (did you feed them with liquid tomato feed?). We grew Rainbow mix one year, and all ours were purple!
