Plant nursery or big box stores already have the plants hardened off so they are ready for full sun. What are your nighttime temps if it's above 50 then the plants will be fine. I would remove the peat pot if at all possible, they make things worse in the long run. I also would plant each of them in a 5 gallon pot. I've used a mix of Miricle Grow (MG) MG organic choice, MG orchid mix (non-course blend) and perlite. I've also used MG organic choice with a lot of perlite and it worked out. Some like the fox farm choices. No sandy soil as I've tried cactus mix and the plants were not happy at all.

Many will comment on soil to use so pick which ever combination you would like.

Alaska fish and seaweed fertilizer is good that's what I use.

it is VERY hot here already, 70's at night, in the sun its over 100 already, but 'THEY' say its in the low 80's,weathermen. I cant peel of the pots, the roots are grown through them, and i have been watching videos of people growing Bhuts in pots on YouTube, and they grow them in peat heavy soils. Or just about anything except clay soil. Anything that drains fast, but kept watered all the time.

I never understood this, because they come from India...a VERY dry place, and with poor soil. Well i have the poor soil...it is all sand here, nothing in it but sand! IF i pot them up, I can make any mix, or put them in the ground and its all sand, and can amend it. They are outside today, in morning sun to dry them out and see if they burn in the morning sun,already, wont know that till Thurs. By then if the leaves are burned, it will show. Dont know how long they were at Lowes. But 90% of the lot were sold by the time i got there.

So...now i have to figure out if they can handle ALL day sun,or only morning sun, or what. Everyone has a different opinion. It is ungodly hot in the sun here...the summer is ghastly hot!!! It is getting there already. Most say to give them only morning sun. But I go back to ,they came from India, a HOT, DRY, poor soil place, so it seems the more you pamper them,the more they grow, but dont bloom or make peppers. And except for that 1 year that I got a few peppers, like 5....and I dont recall how i got them, but they were on 5 foot tall bushes, tons of blooms, but only 5 peppers. So...I have 3 of them, so I can put them in pots and put them i n3 different places,in different sun levels, but they HATE to be transplanted, so if i put them in huge pots now, they are going to be in a lot of WET soil, for a long time. Not to mention the Fert. Most say go light on it, but trim them back a lot ,to make them bushy,instead of tall, so that wind doesn't snap them in half. And it is windy here in the summer storms! It has been windy here for the last 3 days...so...the nest step.pots, or the ground, and where?

I wouldn't be so concerned about how they grow in India. Maybe they'll like those conditions when they are healthy, but at the moment I'd concentrate on letting them recover from overwatering. Since the plants are already stressed, I would not put them in full sun. Any leaf burn will only make these sick plants even sicker. If the roots are already through the peat, I would put the whole wet peat pot in a larger pot and use a good soil mix such as the ones already suggested. Keep the new soil on the dry side, and it may help suck the moisture out of the peat. Although you want to dry them out, don't hesitate to mist the leaves--you don't want the leaves to wilt in crazy hot temperatures. I've lived in Miami, so I know South Florida conditions, and I don't think you should put them in the ground. Maybe do that next year when you've learned more about growing peppers and getting pods.

Bhuts I've grown here in humid SC have done well in my homemade 5-1-1 mix. I don't think you should be so concerned about replicating conditions in India.

Good luck with it and tell us how they turn out!

i dont know what is 5- 1- 1 mix? Any details??? I put them outside in the full sun, to dry them out, took the risk, and they dried out FAST. I have now had to water them 2 times already! They suck up water FAST. And no leaf burn. I keep reading that these peppers love to have constant water, but not wet. they hate to go DRY, only to the point of barely wilting at most. Funny thing for a pepper that started in a DRY DRY area like India. Yet they hate humidity...so south Fla. is wet half the year, out summer. and some fall, and humid all the time

So they must have been in full sun all the time they were in Lowes. At least they didnt burn up. so now, if you tell me your mix you mentioned, maybe i can use that.

I have grown these peppers before, and a lot of the other super hots....Lemon drop, Trinidad Scorpion, Habenaros, Various other ones, with some success. I would LOVE to get some really 'odd/rare' super hot seeds, and try to grow them. I have had these before, but like i said, with only a little success. I guess it just depended on the humidity/wetness of the year. It is like a tight rope, cant be to humid, and not to wet, but not to dry either. So...tell me about your mix.
