chinense When are mustard Scorpions Ripe?

[Nigel]

These are some of my Mustard Scorpions. I`ve left a few on the plants since June to see what color they would eventually turn. Here is a group shot with different stages of ripening.

I grew the green scorpion last season. I let them get bronze,anymore and they get really soft.

 

[Nigel]

Sounds right, John. They do go soft on the plant as they continue to change color very slowly. Thanks.

The same as Trinidad Scorpion Green or a different variety?

the ones at the bottom of your pic Nigel are the ripe ones
 
the one to the left in prodigal sons pic is the ripe one
 
Daddler im pretty sure its not the same as the Green Trini because this one is actually just a Mustard mutation of the Yellow Trinidad Scorpion "FG" that comes out of Australia (got from Junglerain), its also not as hot a normal Trini and the Green Trini is still as hot as other Trini's from what I gather,   does the Green Trini turn a little yellow when ripe? if so then you are correct,    it think its called Evergreen? so I would be inclined to think it doesn't
 
thanks I hope I shed a little light on this
 
thanks your friend Joe

I don't know. I just got some from a seed train labeled "Trinidad Scorpion Green."
 
Someone must have an answer though.

My Trinidad Green Scorpion was originally from Junglerain. I don't want to say they are the same as the Mustard Scorpion,I find it hard to believe they aren't though. I picked mine when they were Kahki/Apple Butter colored. They will get brown mustard if you leave them go long enough. At that point,they are just short of rotting.
