20-20-20 is two times as strong as 10-10-10 and 20 times as strong as 1-1-1, the question still remains: is that the right ratio for Chili peppers? Tomato growers often use things like 5-10-38,, a bit more phosphorus but a looot of potassium.

        I dont know how much 65-90 degF is, but here its 30-35 degC and at 8AM there is already so much sunshine, the leaves like to hang down. A friend of mine is gardener here and he, too said peppers need a lot of sunshine but when it comes to heat and sun...there can be a too much.

Thats all some wild numbers I see here. How about you get 20-20-20 to initiate a balanced growth. Half of 20-20-20 surely comes cheaper than the normal amount of 10-10-10. If the plant doesnt want to blossom, get some higher in Phosphate (the second number) and later you go to 5-15-35 or...
