I accidentally left my ghost pepper plant out overnight. It only dropped to 44°F, but all the leaves are now wilted. Is there anything I can do to save the plant? It’s currently 68° and sunny so it’s still outside, but I’m not sure what to do. I have never kept a plant alive this long and I really don’t want it to die now. Please tell me if there’s anything I can do.

44 is not bad to kill it off . Just continue taking care of it and don’t forget to bring it inside ! I have like 15 plants outside and it’s constantly going into the mid 40s , some aren’t handling it well but others are still flowering and even giving off new pods(Arizona )
You should be fine
44 is fine. It wilted because it needs water or has too much.
The fruits are red. Pick them. What are you waiting for?
That does not look like a ghost pepper plant.
Once soil temps drop below 60 degrees F, the plant stops growing. This is due to peppers being more of a tropical fruit.
