just let them ripen as they can...and if they don't ripen, and you
aren't planning on trying to overwinter the plant or such, just yank
that puppy from the ground when temps drop towards freezing, hand the
whole thing upside down in the basement (closet, garage...preferrably
somewhere not too humid), and let them all dry/ripen like that...
wirks fer me...
