I have a Huge Pimento De Neyde X Bhut Jolokia plant that I had been nursing under lights. I put it outside on 06/25, without any pods on it, and it had tons (30 +) of Purple/Black Pods by 06/30! I made the mistake of picking a few as I didn't know that they ripen red. I'm getting more pods and some of the pods are getting thicker, but nearly 1 month later, nothing has changed from the purple/black stage. How long will they take to ripen? They are getting damn good sun, good watering and Maxi-Bloom once in a while.
