Question
I have a bell pepper plant that is producing only one pepper. It produces flowers that start the earliest stages of a pepper, but then break off without being touched. The plant is very green, full, and bushy. It gets blooming nutrients and is under a 400 watt hps lamp about two foot above the plant. Is there anything I'm doing wrong to cause the young peppers break off?

Answer
Dear Justin,
If the plant is healthy, I have only one idea.  I'm wondering if the blooming nutrient is hindering fruit production.  A blooming nutrient is not the same thing as actual plant food.  I use all natural and organic, so I'm not terribly familiar with the workings of chemical plant support, but I do recognize the terms.  In regard to the pepper plant, the bloom is not the goal, only one of the steps. A plant that produces vegetation needs actual fertilizer.  Also, make sure that the plant is not under the lamp too long.  
The plant needs night and day.
Back off of the blooming food and see if that changes anything.
Kind Regards,
Kindred
