Heat and Time to Harvest. Habanero peppers take about 75 days from transplant until green and ready to harvest. To fully ripen and take on full color, habaneros take a total of 100 to 120 days from transplant to harvest. Peppers, particularly the hot peppers such as habaneros, need heat to ripen well and develop a good flavor and spice. Habaneros grow best when the air temperature is between 70 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Temperatures above 90 F or below 60 F can cause flowers to drop.

And Ferrari didn't necessarily bring his fish in alone, with stories linked from Sportex's Facebook page indicating that twin brother Dario was by his side.
