A couple hundred miles downeast (for yall that's anyone that lives south of
Maine)

My night temps are still getting down into the 30's The key is that 2AM
temp. Wait anther month

Per Johnny's Seeds ( a seed company in Maine) you shouldn't plant out
peppers until the night, low temp gets above 55F (and Dave Dewitt "The
Pepper Garden")

Got a couple peppers sitting in a "Hot Box" in a greenhouse, at 50F min
night temp, These plants have not grown 1 inch in the last month, The others
in the house have grown 6 in at 70F.

Calvins bullets up 16in with buds, 3 Choc habs up a ft with buds.
