pepper plant help???
Answers:
Keep the pot inside on a window ledge until the weather is warmer (pepper plants love warm weather). If you want to keep it inside, make sure that it has lots of direct sunlight. Water it when the soil starts to dry out but water only in the evening when the direct sunlight is gone (the sunlight will be magnified by the water and cause the water to heat and may burn the roots). Same goes for if you plant it outside. Make sure you prune back the parts of the plant that aren't doing well or that just aren't keeping up with the rest of the plant. Let the plant put it's energy into the healthy, productive parts of the plant, instead of the damaged or stunted parts.

Where do you live?
My green peppers grow great in my outdoor garden, not in a pot. during the heat I water my gardens every day.
even my 84 year old mother will stop by and pick peppers for her sauce that very night.

It should be outside. Vegetable plants need lots of sun. It will be personal preference as to whether you pot garden it, or choose to place it in the ground. Container plants, in full sunlight, should be watered daily, hanging baskets, twice a day. The plant would enjoy a spot in garden soil where it can stretch its roots out more, and require less attention.
outdoors and preferably not in a pot. I raise my plants in a raised bed garden and water it through every couple days with drip irrigation. I also would caution against buying plants before knowing how to care for them.
