Hello, I am growing red bell peppers for the first time. Can anyone tell me why they have black stripes on them?. they are still at the green stage, I have been watering them well, but not overly and feeding them with tomato feed. I keep them in the greenhouse.
Thanks in advance.

They look a blackish colour when they are changing from green to red or orange. It's nothing to worry about.
It`s normal-and you will see some darkening around the stem as well.
Normal! Patience.
