P.S How do I post pictures?

Get it outdoors, harden it off and all should be well. Halogen I don't think is ideal for plants. The Bhut should be fine going outside, I live in MD and all my plants are out now. To post pics go to photobucket set up acct then upload the pic hover over the pic with mouse then click the HTML link and paste to the post you will see the image when you preview message the submit.

Thanks man, I was hoping you'd respond to this cause I noticed you were from MD when responded to my last post. I tried hardening it off once but the weathers been so inconsistent around here it's been tough

A week and 1/2 ago I kicked em all out as long as it was 50 degrees at night I left them out and they been out since. Even with all the rain they stay out and have not had any negative impact though a few leaves did get some sun burn when hardening off but minimal. It helps to start them out under a tree with speckled sun then move to 1-2 hours morning sun then increase from there. Let me know how it goes.

I don't know if this will help at all, but yesterday I received some plants I'd bought, and there was a note inside about growing peppers. I was going to toss it, then decided to read it. Something on there was interesting, it said when the super hots started flowering to start using Bloom Booster fertilizer, especially with Bhuts as they tended to drop blooms. I figured, can't hurt to try it. But I agree with habjolokia, put it outside. Mine have been out since March and I've actually got a bunch of fruit on most all of them.

I agree, if you can get it outside, do so. Inside is not natural for peppers and especially the lights are not the same as real sun for 8 hours a day or more.

I push mine out and they have endured temps down to 40 degrees at night. It doesn't seem to phase them. I know the gold standard is 50 and above but I have had peppers endure even high 30 degree nights with no evidence of negative affects. This goes for sweets and super hots.

But make sure that you "harden them off" before booting them for good.

You will still deal with some blossom drop but I wouldn't expect the mass defoliation to continue. If it does, then it is probably a nutrient issue.

You can search for 5-1-1 mix when you pot up. What I have used and some say its similar, 1/2 MG Orchid mix and 1/2 MG organic soil. Glad you have the plants out and hardening them off.

Yes, I think the MG orchid mix is good stuff. I use it for my seedlings. But to pot up a bunch of plants for the summer in 3-7 gallon pots, you would go broke using that stuff. If you are just growing one or two plants, it becomes a lot more realistic as well as convenient.
