Pot is about 1 gallon, I’ve read that these types should be in a 5gal or even 10gal pot. I also haven’t seen any issues with the plant so far; growing and fruiting like crazy. Should I transplant to a big pot or just leave it be for now?

    50 F

    The same is true and to an ever greater extent for peppers. If temperature drops below 10C / 50F you can expect zero plant growth for up to a week. This effectively limits plant growth season to 10-12 weeks in 6B - it will still flower and fruit after that, but the plant will hardly grow.

      Yeah… We had to bring our peppers back inside for hopefully the last time because it dropped down to 40 over the weekend. The tomatoes were in the ground already but a couple cool nights shouldn’t be a big deal in the long run.
