Nice, I too also have a similar looking reaper (well 2 actually).

I'm looking forward to making a batch of hot sauce with them. :) I usually leave mine on a sunny kitchen windowsill as the weather here a bit unpredictable.

Is it in full sun/hardened off?

If so, leave it and care for it.
Looks good so far :-)

Full sun. Only thing I protect it from is Rain. Simply because It's in a 6 gallon container. Good drainage but no need to let it take that hit.

nothing beats a good rain soaking,kinda magical actually
Not really,just a natural thing
You can not mix "rain" in a bucket(potions)
I use lake water for my gardening water,no ferts required
If plants are truly hardened off they take anything nature throws at them outside of hail the size of golf balls

Nice plant you got there. Lucky you that you got it hardened off already.
