indoor Indoor Reaper

[Jeff L]

I moved my reaper indoors and placed it in a sunny window now the leaves are falling off big time. What’s the best way for me to keep it alive?

Do you have any pictures, its easier to diagnose if we can see it?

Besides pix, a question..... Was plant in ground or pot? Transfer shock can cause leaf drop...

Here it is

Does it get light at all from the windows/the light next to it?

I can see you have two small LED bars on it, what is the rated watt draw down on those?, not the stated watts but actual consumption? A plant that size would need a minimum of 200w draw down and lights positioned over the top of the canopy to continue fruiting and photosynthesizing at a reasonable rate i reckon, also agreed with smokin, if its also transplant into a pot and is now starved of light the environmental stress will cause it to shut down and drop to preserve the stem and reshoot sites.

It was in the same pot . I had it on my deck all summer

The led bar will not provide enough light. You need to have it under a much stronger light.

Set it on the floor in front of the window so the sunlight can shine down on it better.

Inside air at the end of the season is often warmer and dryer than outside. If this is the case, moving it inside will increase the rate of transpiration of the plant. If the increase is abrupt enough, it can shock the plant causing it to drop leaves to offset the increased transpiration.

Pretty normal for a plant to drop leaves after being brought indoors, doesn't mean it is dying. As others mentioned, several reasons why this occurs.
