It’s a madame jeannete pepper, i don’t know what color yet so I’m excited to find out. It’s quite small and it’s producing only 1 pepper. I think it’s like 15/18cm tall. I might change it’s pot size when i get back home, see if that helps. Any tips? /or questions?

Your plant is small because your not watering consistently. Look at your leaves. Pepper leaves shouldn’t be wavy, curling or dry. They should be soft, pliable, flat and smooth. Your plant can’t utilize any fertilizer you give them if you’re not watering properly. Get a water meter and check it 2 inches down and 6-8 inches down. I’m attaching a video. And yes…you should have a bigger pot. Pepper plants do better in a 3-5 gallon pot. You also should have a stake. Pepper plants that are small and young don’t have woody stems yet and can easily topple over under the weight of one fruit. By not having support, inconsistent watering and not being able to get the nutrients it needs…your plant is telling you that it can’t support more than that one fruit.
