It looks like the pepper was experiencing sunburn, as for the hole many possibilities, earwigs, stink bugs, or caterpillars. Did you check inside sometimes you will find the culprit or its evidence.

I have had many, many, many of these same occurances... Early in the summer I found a caterpiller inside a Moruga scorpian pod with a freshly cut hole that made me investigate. I have been treating my plants with BT-K and I believe it has helped reduce the damage, but it did take a while. It's strange though that I have not found one more caterpiller in any of the other pods that have holes, or even seen one crawling around. They must be night creatures. Found holes in Reapers, Morugas, 7-Pots, Fatalis and Ghosts.

Sunburn? How do I prevent it?

I think your pod is starting to ripen vs. sunburn... Just my 2 cents....

once the integrity of the fruit/veg is breached...

there is no way to come to any opinion as to what caused further damage ...

to say a pepper with a hole in it scorched.. because of whatever [sun, heat,drought,etc].. is a leap ...

i would suggest it scorched because it had a hole in it...

so stop things from making holes...

and understand.. that whatever laid the egg.. that resulted in that worm.. could be long gone ...

is there any problem with the Ps without holes in them ???

soooo .. using the cause/effect theory ...

the 'cause' of you problem was momma laying some eggs ... that could have been prevented ... but there may be nothing to prevent now .. based on what little we know ...

the 'effect' .. the hole.. and then color change ... is not something to manage ...

dispose of produce with holes in them.. after you find out whats inside.. if anything ...

Thank yall but I have another pod that has a spot of that same color but no hole that's it though the rest od the pods look great

Hi ken. Good to see you over here. (He posts a lot in Garden Clinic.)

The purple color is the sunburn and does not effect the quality of the pepper, the hole is from another source, I was answering both questions from the OP. it's hard to tell if there is just a hole and no evidence besides that as to what did it.
