It's possible especially if you have enough of them with high lumens output. However, cfls are not practical for flowering and setting fruit, Preferred lights are 400w+HPS light and the sun of course.
 
Thank you
Its just that I thought you had to swap to 2400k spectrum of light or something like that for it to happen.
I'm not trying to set the peppers I just have about 6 weeks or so before I can get the plants outside and I just wonder if it was possible.
If it does happen it will be a big bonus 8-)

Yes, 2400K would be better for flowering and fruiting, guess I forgot to add that~
