That's great, Ray. I have raised beds on a 2 1/2 ft. tall retaining wall probably 25 yards long against my side fence and raised beds at ground levelwhere I can plant vegetables. On the retaining wall bed, there were some nice bushes, sage, and roses that I tended and I planted some geraniums in between. Derek took ownership of the ground level beds for vegetables, but he kinda went crazy and went willy nilly without a plan and let the weeds grow along with the vegetables. I tore most of it up when he left, but left six stalks of corn and three tomato plants. There's a pumpkin plant too. It's too late to plant for this season so I'll wait until next to plant again.

Couple of days ago. Soz about the jerky camera and the weird zooms. Didn't work this out, it was spontaneous.

Well, at least in my case, it was, Rayge. I now have a big smile on my face. The happy feeling was doubled with the visit at the end. Thanks.

Should I just pull these things off now? Or wait a week or two? Will they grow back?

Should I just pull these things off now? Or wait a week or two? Will they grow back? Depends what they are. If they're chilis, or other peppers, take them off as soon as they're mainly red.
Leaving red ones on the plant inhibits the ripening of the green ones. Although you may like the green ones. If they're not peppers, and the leaves don't look much like it to me, let me know what it is.

Thanks G, Ray. So do I just pull/twist them off?
I've never grown anything like this before. It was a present from my sis and she doesn't know the specifics, just that it's a chilli plant.
It's strange because it's been there well over a year with absolutely nothing going on, and over the last three or four months these lovely peppers have appeared. They're growing pretty quickly too but I doubt they'll get much bigger.

There's lots of info on the net on how to look after them. But it looks like you've got it in a good spot receiving plenty of light. You'll probably need to think about overwintering it in about 3-4 weeks. chilliworkshop.co.uk/overwintering-chillies/

Also it could probably do with a quick prune.
