Just wondering, might that be so they can get more fruit from a single
planting? That is, instead of letting a plant ripen its pods and then
harvesting, do they get more fruit if they keep picking green, and the plant
keeps producing more?
A side guess, is it easier to handle and ship unripe peppers, too? Some of
the pods I see in the grocery, like serranos, are green with an occasional
patch of orange on the ones old enough to have hard, dry stems.
