Just got a short newspaper clipping from my grandmother. No idea as to source. (Paraphrased) Air temperature is partly responsible for how hot chile peppers are. Peppers grown at temps between 86 and 95 degrees Farenheit contain 2 times the capsaicin as those grown between 59 and 72. Thought you might be interested.
