This is the lone reaper my plant gave me, can't just post the wins, right?... the plant is flowering again, so fingers crossed. Aside from being small, it was packed with intense heat.

Not sure where you're at, but dropping flowers could be from being too hot. That's said, leaf droop could be caused from overwatering. Do you check your soil before watering?

I'm in Texas, it's been hot, not so much the last couple of days we've had rain. I check 2-3 inches below the surface before I water.

Peppers can be finicky. Too hot (above 90), too cold (below 60), too humid or too dry and they won't pollinate, leading to flower drop.

They are self pollinating like tomatoes, though, so I like to give our plants a little shake when I check on them to help with higher fertilizing and fruit set.

Finicky indeed. I started to shake up the flowers gently a couple weeks ago. I moved them into more shaded areas so as they're not in the blazing sun at the hottest part of the day. I'm seeing growth in some and not so much in others. It's a learning experience.

Good deal.

Before I forget, a place I go if I I've had a bad grow and need to make volume is bohica pepper hut (bohicapepperhut.com)... I believe their fresh orders are queuing up

I have seen their emails about pre-sales. I'll check them out.
