Lack of productivity with peppers can often be caused by not picking them! ALWAYS pick the first peppers as soon as they reach full size and are green. That stimulates the plant to produce more fruit. If you leave the first peppers on until they turn red, you'll get very poor production, and they won't turn red any faster. Normal peppers turn red based on day length. That is why even seemingly immature peppers turn red in October, while a humongous pepper won't turn red in July.
