Ripening Peppers

Hi All,
Growing update seems to have vanished - so I have started this thread for my query, hope thats okay ...
Quick question, I have one pepper on my pointy pepper plant - which is green and quite large - this is meaning the plant is dropping all other flowers to sustain it (I think thats the reason...), I would really like more - should I take it off to ripen it now ?
Another pepper/chilli plant related question - why do I seem to have alot of leaves and very few flowers on my plants - what am I doing wrong ??!?!?!?
you're all so helpful - thanks x
TIA,
Lulubells
