![]() ![]() Here is a pup that I removed about a month ago. I removed another at the same time, but it has no variegation. Looks like I need to move it to another pot or get rid of it. ![]() |

![]() Nice! It looks like it fruited without getting too tall. Is that because it's in a pot?

![]() The plant in the pot is one of the pups I removed. The plant that is fruiting is in the ground. She went through Irma and is still alive. It was leaning badly but I proper it up again. I will post update photos.

![]() Based on how filled out they are, you could probably harvest them now and they would ripen fine. But personally, I usually wait until a couple start to turn yellow.
