Jalapeños ?? Ok or not?

11 years ago

We have some jalapenos we started from seed and also some jalapenos we purchased when they were about 6 inches tall from the garden store. The 6 inch tall ones have produced a few peppers. Some are round like cherry tomatoes and some on the other side are longer but only growing to about 2 inches. The majority of them were started from seed and were brought inside and outside so that they could acclimate to the temperatures. It's been about a high of 95 but we have gotten a ton of rain but they are on our covered porch and get mostly rain spray and we water them when they look wilting. I read on here that you want to stress them out and not give them a lot of water if you want them to be hot. I'm going to buy them some fertilizer today as that seems to be the general consensus whenever they're not doing well. But can anyone tell what's going on with them by looking at the leaves. They just don't seem to be producing the number of peppers that they should. The size of the peppers they do produce is odd and there just doesn't seem to be a lot of blooms. They're planted in miracle grow with the moisture lock additive. This is the first time we've tried to do any type of vegetables in our container garden and would really appreciate the help.
