What ends it. It is fresh produce. It starts to wilt, soften and rot from the day it was picked, and the fridge only slows that down. How to make it last longer

Storage

In the fridge, kept dry. FoodKeeper notes whole peppers last longer when dry. Heat varies from chilli to chilli, so taste a sliver before deciding how many.
