Signs of Cold Stress in Tree pepper

Symptoms

Tree pepper exhibits moderate resilience to cold and flourishes optimally when temperatures range from 60℉ to 75℉. Throughout winter, it should be maintained above 50℉. Should the temperature drop below 40℉, foliage may darken. In extreme instances, water-soaked tissue death, wilting, and drooping might occur, with leaves progressively turning brown.

Solutions

Remove any parts damaged by frost. Promptly relocate the plant indoors to a warm setting or construct a temporary greenhouse for protection against cold. When bringing the plant inside, select a spot near a south-facing window to guarantee sufficient light. If light is inadequate, artificial lighting can be utilized.

Symptoms

In summer, Tree pepper needs to be kept below 75℉. When temperatures surpass 85℉, the plant's development slows, its leaves lighten in hue, and it becomes more prone to sun damage.

Solutions

Prune off any sun-scorched and desiccated sections. Relocate the plant to an area offering shade from the afternoon sun. Irrigate the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
