Hello, I'm new to gardening and have a small balcony with some potted herbs and two orange bell pepper plants. I bought two young pepper plants that already had a handful buds on each of them. I repotted them and did my best to care for them, however I believe I was overwatering them. Every morning, I’d find what looked like promising pepper buds that had fallen off the plant and ended up in the pot. Luckily, each plant managed to keep one pepper, and those peppers grew quite large. But there’s a problem: both peppers have stayed about the same size and are still green after about two months. It seems they stopped ripening and aren’t turning orange. I’ve learned that I was overwatering, and I’ve been taking better care of the plants since then. Now they’re growing bigger and looking healthier, and I even see some new buds forming, which I’m hopeful about. My main question is: are the peppers that survived my overwatering stuck in some kind of paralysis state? Should I remove them to promote new growth, or is there still a chance they will ripen and turn orange?

    For me, peppers always feel like they take forever to actually ripen
