are these plants too small to be leaving the pods on?
should i be removing them early to promote more growth? i’m not sure when you’re supposed to start leaving them on, i just don’t want to stunt the plants by letting them fruit too early.

If it’s a super hot, it is said to leave them as they take a whole lot longer to grow. And it is also said that pepper plants continue to grow even when they have peppers on them. Just make sure you’re fertilizing regularly.

I always just pick them whenever I need them at this point. I have a lot of plants so might be different for you. Need a bell pepper, just take 2 or 3 smaller ones. Don’t waste them 🙂
