Flower Drop

Hey Bluteid, you are the one out of line. People take the time to help you including listing 11 answers, and because you say it doesn't apply (later), you simply ignore it instead of thanking him for his time, and say "Anybody have any idea?" Then you continue to be rude calling people assholes, and trolls, when your attitude is the one that needs adjusting.

Thanks but your opinion isn't wanted. This is an environment of learning and growth. I know it's a pollination issue. So you can crawl back to the bridge you came from under:D

This forum has always been very helpful and the members respectful, aside from side mostly light hearted jabs.  If the replies you got from the members on this thread are too tough or "asshole" like, you should shop for opinions elsewhere.  You're WAY over-reacting.

I would bump up the temp if possible. Pepper plants will produce flowers at almost any temp the plant will grow in but setting pods is a whole different story. I think 75° is a little on the cool side. I know my plants in the past have done exactly as you have described and when temps bumped up a bit they went nuts.

Thanks. I will try to increase the temp. So you think a heater would be to much?

A heat mat would probably be good.

I just built a grow tent for my second plant. If temperature is an issue I'm sure it will affect that plant as well. Do you think a heat mat would overpower my grow tent? It's insulated very well with this reflective bubble wrap stuff that I got from Lowe's. Usually used in ducting to help with insulation.

Any heat source is good as long as you have a way to monitor it. Temp controlled on/off switches are the best idea as you would hate to cook a plant on accident.

I don't have any experience with a heat mat in a well insulated environment, but the good thing is they give off a low gentle heat and with the addition of a timer (mentioned above), you can give them just a little heat bump when needed.

my pepper plants almost always drop flowers. it's mostly because they are not mature or ready to start fruiting. personally, I believe this is the #1 cause followed by being too hot/cold and that doesn't appear to be a factor. all 6 of my plants were dropping them last week, now that it has grown several more inches they are now developing pods. most of the time you can tell if it's ready to start producing fruit by the size of the blossom/flowers. generally they are bigger when the plant is ready to fruit and smaller when plant is not ready.
 
also, not every flower will become fruit even when things are optimum. the plant has its own way to decide what flowers become fruit and which flowers will fall off.

If there is a deficiency yes, however the OP placed up the fertiliser that they use and it has sufficient calcium and magnesium
