With bell peppers, it depends on the ripeness, green to red to yellow. Other peppers like Thai chili's are just green to red. Habenero's, jalepenos and Scotch Bonnets will be all 3 colors depending on age also. The heat comes from the capsacin in the seed casing, the older the pepper, the more seed, the hotter it will be within species.

Like sweet peppers, chilli peppers also change colour as they ripen. The colour depends on how long the fruit have been growing and how ripe they are. Green chillis turn yellow as they ripen and then red. They are hottest when they are fully ripe (red).

It's not the length of time, but instead, the type of pepper. Each pepper has its own distinct color. For example, a habenero pepper is green, but no matter how long it grows, it will stay green.

I don't think it depends on how long they have been growing but more on how hot they are. Apparently orangey ones are the hottest.

I can buy peppers at my local fruit/veg shop any time of the year.
Red, yellow, green, orange. He always has them in stock.
And I love `em :-)
