Hi all,

DH bought a pepperoncini start this year, and it's now producing peppers. They're turning reddish with some green still on them. We picked one and it's sweet and spicy with zero heat. So a few questions:

1. When are pepperoncinis ripe?
2. Aren't they supposed to have some heat? (DH ate seeds and all, no heat)

Thanks,

Nan
