scorpion premature rippening

i have a scorpion growing in a dwc outdoors with a few golfball sized pods rippening.i also have alot of small pods rippening as well , the .small ones are the size of a dime.the plant is 7 months old and is about 4 ft. tall i had this happen with jalepenos once.any info would be helpfull.thank you.
 
Thats just the way the pods grow some will be big and some not so big, Pod sizes usually depend on the age, size, plant food, and health of the plant. As far as pod ripening is concerned it doesnt really fit with your statement
