We've picked a lot of ours and frozen them...I'm leaving some on the plant to go Red, if they don't get too big..we've had a bumper crop this year...If you have time see my Blog on Peppers...

Yes I read it Sue. Don't think I'll get as many as that but it was very informative. I'll know what to do with them if I do. Thanks.

You're welcome...:o)) It would have been a shame for them to go to waste...we were pleased to find that they could be frozen...Hate to see food go to waste...

Same here on the food bit. We're planning already what to do with all our tomatoes. Been sunny all day here, so got the garden back up to scratch after our holiday.

That sounds good Sue, might give that a go. This one just seemed to ripen quite quickly by itself. Don't know why 6d.

Yes give it a try...you won't be disappointed...:o))

6d all of mine are a good size, had loads of sunshine, but none have changed colour yet...

Oh and I'm leaving the ripe pepper in with the tomatoes, to encourage them to ripen. Apparently they give off a gas.

I'm sure it's true. Lol.

I was thinking of another gas....naughty me...:o)))

Tut tut Sue, I think that's after you eat them. Although, there might be something in that. Better go, think the wind's getting up.
