Lack of buds and flowers

Metman,
Our first frost is usually around the middle of November, but keep a watch on the nigh temps, as once the lows get around 65 degress production stops. I start potting the pepper I want to keep around mid October, so I can get them adjusted and control any bugs that want to hibernate in my barn....


Night low temps are just now consistently in the upper 50's and low 60's here in dfw and my plants are just now starting to produce like crazy. So, for me personally,most of my plants didn't START producing until nighttime lows got BELOW 65°.
