Karen: Red Savs. and Habs like filtered shade during the hottest part of the day. A couple solutions: 1. Put up some old sheets w/ holes in them. Support them over your plants w/ sticks. 2. Plant some fast growing annuals around your peppers; I use Amaranth (but sometimes regret it because it self sows pretty effectively). 3. Plant your peppers so the the leaves interweave, thus shading the soil and creating a friendly microclimate (this is based on the work of John Jeavons - bioIntensive). Plant your Habs and Red Savs. in the inside, so they get shaded somewhat by the taller plants. Let us know how you work this out! -- Robert Farr (540) 668-7160 Check http://www.chileman.com for ALL Natural Hot Sauce!
