I suspect they turn red since both the parents do. I doubt I can keep from eating the green ones long enough to get any fully ripe ones until I decide it's time to go for some seed this fall. I can't even get the original Greeks past yellowish before they get eaten. Gotta put some plants in bigger pots soon to get more of a fruit load - the new pods start withering due to lack of water (too light soil mix) so then I pick them down to nothing.
