What kind is it, and what are the evening/night temps? Typically here in Zone 8, a plant will look a little droopy if it gets below 50 degrees F.

Do you water in the evening?

Sorry, its a Pumpkin Habanero and the temperature is a moderate 65-75 all year round, even at night. I try to water in the morning, but typically I water only when the plant really needs it.. So could be morning or night. Also, it only gets about 4-5 sun a day.

Are you sure it's actually wilting?

Or... is it just "relaxing" like plants do when the sun goes down?

Could it be getting negative vibes from yer fiancee's plants?

I would not worry about it as long as the plant still looks healthy. I had 2 plants last year that had leaf curling issues. Both out produced all the others by more than double in pod production. They looked the worst at night. They would curl up, and not straighten out till the sun had been on them for a couple of hours.

Hey Kevin - Here is some day and night pictures. I suppose it might be normal as they always recover in the morning, but had never seen this in my other plants.

Tomt226 - haha no, this is in a different garden, so we can't blame here portion of the garden!

contexan254 - good to know, thanks

Looks normal to me too. Plant material is tough...

My thinking is that, it is something "light" related (Day , Night).
So it could be that the leaves perk up during the day looking for light. At night, when there is no light then they just relax.

Yep, I tend to droop more at the end of the day as well. Kick back in your lazy boy and share a movie and a bowl of popcorn with your Pumpkin Pepper. Relax....your pepper seems to know the deal.
