some varieties turn yellow when ripe, if it's big, cut into one and see if it's ready.

any problems with the leaves?

If they're small and yellowing, then you've got something else going on.

here in Arizona, the ones in direct, ferocious sunlight all day did that. They also got kinda nasty. I suspect that the continuous light and heat cooked them.
