Nice pic! Are plants are identical. I am growing that one too, same exact leaves, fruit shape, and color. Nice to see consistency somestimes.

They're sun burned or sun scald. The peppers are fine. Still completely edible. There isn't enough leaf coverage to protect the peppers. It happens to mine every year.

Mine started off slow, but drastically picked up growth speed when planted in the ground mid July of last year. They do so much better in the soil than in containers. Just my experience. I had the opposite findings with other varieties of hot peppers. I was tripping over Purple Jalapenos come September. I live in Zone 6B. Chris

Sorry for a late response, haven't been here for a long time. The seeds came Tomato Growers Supply. Poor germination rate though, so plant a bunch.
