They might be ok, just water them well. If your soil is too dry it might not suck up all the water. So water it a couple time, an hour between and they might be ok

Water them now and see. You may be lucky but maybe not. If it doesn’t perk up, remove all the fruit to give it a chance to build more leaves.
These two were absolutely fine, I watered them a couple of times and then after about 12 hours they were ok. Lost some leaves and a pepper but otherwise no problem.

Mine seem to thrive after looking kinda wilted for a bit. Yours have sort of taken that to the extreme, but I bet they’ll come back.
They for sure do better being under-watered vs over-watered

They will be fine as long as the leafs arnt brown. Peppers are tough mofo’s.

Slaps some water on em and you’ll be fine.

They might be fine but they’ll take a while to recover and bear fruit.

The one in the front might be savable. The other two look dead already… but water them and see what happens.

It really depends on if the roots are alive. If the roots are ok even if the plant looks like hell, they’ll survive.

Keep them out of the shade for a day or two and water heavily but make sure the soil is absorbing the water so a little at a time. They should be fine. A liquid fertilizer would probably help during recovery but peppers are extremely resilient in my experience.

I’ve left the country for over a week, and had my pepper plants lose 80% of their leaves. They still bounced right back after a couple days, should be fine

Water them generously and theh should be just fine.

Water them well and keep them out the sun and in a cooler area if possible. Sometimes I put a clear plastic bag with airholes over them to bring the humidity up just for a day or few to help retain more moisture in the plant. Only watering and time will tell with them. Best of luck to you that they recover
