When to Harvest Peppers. Peppers should be ready to harvest in approximately 70-80 days of ideal growing conditions. Sweet peppers are picked green, not fully ripe. They will feel firm and crisp when ready, and should not be pulled from the plant but cut with a sharp knife or pruning shears.
Mature potatoes are harvested in the fall or early winter depending on your plants and the weather. Wait until all the foliage of the plant has withered and died back before harvesting mature potatoes. After the foliage has died, dig up a potato from one or two plants and rub the skin of the potato with your fingers. The skin of a potato that is ready for harvest won't scrub off easily. If the skin of your test potatoes does come off easily, wait a few more days and test a couple more potatoes.
