These habaneros have been on the plant for a while now, a couple weeks minimum and they arnt showing any signs of ripening or changing colour. They are also no longer growing in size. I am a first time grower of peppers and would like assistance and knowledge of when to pick, or if they will ripen on the plant.

Habaneros, like other very hot peppers, are very slow to grow and ripen. Just leave it on the plant and it will eventually ripen.

Weeks? Let us know when you get to months.

Habs are super slow to ripen
To much shade? Not enough sun?
Just keep waiting

The peppers will ripen in brown bag if you don’t want to wait for them to ripe on tree
