Zipcode, (or anyone else that snips) all the peppers are doing great and have put on lots of new growth uniformly except for a couple. These two have only put on new leaves at the tip, many of them and in a cluster. Is this what you meant by waiting until it forks? They look odd, I hope I didn't ruin them. Yikes!
You could do it before it forks, as long as it has a few true leaves it can make new branches, but I normally would wait until it forks for the plant to have a decent amount of energy and have fast vegetative growth.
