Well, if it's a _Sandia_ pepper, you wait for a dark night, and go out
to see if it's softly glowing blue.

heh...


(Spent a little too much time in a lab wearing a dosage badge a long
time ago - that's a joke, I say a joke, son, and I neither like nor grow
peppers so I'm otherwise useless for your question) - I suppose there is
the question of whether this particular sort of pepper turns color
(probably not blue, nor glowing in the dark) when ripe.

if my lab days were writ in any color it would be
phosphor green.

at least after i graduated to using a terminal instead
of punched cards.

Okay you two. I know you are pulling my leg. I know
that hots pepper grow "red" in the dark. The "blue" ones
are those yukky sweet pepper those folks above the Mason/Dixon
line cook with. The green glowers are the really gross ones
and are the color of, well I will stop here as it is a
family group.

So, fellows, I am not tricked. Ha! I AM NOT FOOLED!
