Do you need help identifying a 🌶?
Is your plant suffering from an unknown issue? 🤧
Then ask in Identification and Diagnosis.

I'm going to try to get out there and take pics sometime today. I was on vacation for about a week, so still trying to catch up. I'll get one up here shortly.
Here's an updated pic. It looks a little droopy right now because it's been getting the morning sun, but it'll perk up here in about an hour or so, and I think it's time to water it again, but need to talk to my neighbor first to make sure he hasn't just watered it while we were gone...

Lift the pot: Light? Heavy? Stick your finger 2-3 inches deep: Dry? Moist? Wet?
Not trying to be a smartass - I was born that way
Sometimes I have to water my plants every 2-3 days, sometimes every 2-3 weeks and the easiest way of knowing is to lift the pot and/or stick your finger in the dirt.
Now Peppy is startin to warm up!
Stick one of your digits into the soil to see if it needs water.

Yeah, she needed some water. I knew to stick my finger in, but hadn't ever thought of lifting the pot to see how heavy it is. That's a good idea for a smaller pot. She's perked up nicely since the shade came in. At this rate, maybe we'll have some peppers by September!... 2010
