I have one capsicum bush in a small planter box it grew with about 8 small fruits (green) and not real large before they look as if they were starting to burn. After picking the fruit I wish to know will more fruit bloom from the one plant. Ray in suburban WA.

Hi Ray, Read comments from the 28th from Kay, sound like the same problem. Will change colour the longer you leave them on the plant. I find the red ones a little bit sweeter. I am no expert but i have found capsicum one of the most easy vegetables to grow. Plant will not reproduce more capsicums.
