Hey all.
I have two carribean reds (both with about 20+ immature pods each) and one orange Habanero (only two)
Still getting alot of daylight hours here in Japan, and I'm blessed with a South facing window.
However, the temp is dropping rapidly.
Flowers are starting to drop the past few days, but no leaves yet.
So I have in mind what I need to do over wintering, but I would really appreciate the advice so my babies have the best chance surviving.
Should I be removing pods and trying to ripen off the plant?
Should I not worry until leaves start drop before I prune it viciously?
I've been pinching off the new growth to help the fruits, I wonder what the cut off point is though.
