QuestionHello !!
I grew several different kinds of peppers(cayane, jalapeno,and others)from seed. Had a great success with germination and growth (lots of foliage} but very few flowers and actual fruit. Did I fertilize too much?
I live in southern Wisconsin, started the seeds in early March indoors.
Many Thanks for any info you can provide! I'm already looking forward to more success next spring!!

AnswerScott:
You didn't say how you fertilized, but yes, it is possible it was too much nitrogen. Peppers are also very temperature sensitive, nighttime temps below 60 will not allow the plant to set flower, daytime temps above 90 will cause them to drop fruit.
