My pepper plants are less than 2 months old and about the size of a smurf. You know, three apples high. A few days ago I noticed that they’re beginning to flower. From each bud a pepper will form. These plants aren’t supposed to mature until a minimum of 3 months after planting, and they should be significantly larger before they do so. What the hell? How do I stop this from happening? I’m not ready to transplant them to the garden yet! And I’m not really trying to get just 4 peppers from each plant, honestly. What can I do to return them to their vegetative state?
