Hi, new to this format of commo. I grow scorpion, ghost, and datil peppers from seed, I start in Feb. seeding, planted my established plants outside may 16, N.E. Tn. Have been picking the 3 types since July 15, Have literelly picked several hundred peppers. My pepper plants are approx 10+' high, the scorpion, and ghost look like christmas lights, I don not believe the remaining peppers will ripen before the cold nights set in, If I wait and pick them before the first frost and they are still green will they be hot or not? thanks, wayne@datilsensation.com
