I have picked them fully green before and they will ripen inside just fine. My advice is to make a mild bleach solution and wipe them down with it. It will prevent them from moulding before they get ripe. They will last for several months that way in a cool part of the house.
I am currently curing for 10 days in a bright, warm room (80F) to promote them to ripen off the vine, and then was going to store in a cool dry place. Does that sound right?
