Why Is There Another Pepper Inside My Pepper?

The video explains the occurrence of finding a small pepper inside a larger one, which is due to a genetic mutation causing an unfertilized ovule to develop into a fruit.

The video also covers the reproductive process of peppers and the potential agricultural advantages of parthenocarpy, such as more reliable and larger harvests.
