We're growing it in the greenhouse this season. We're passive solar (just a
big hoop house) with no fans. It's really NOT that humid in our house
because the doors are kept open throughout the day.

Growing several varities of peppers, including Johnny's "King Arthur."
Something I'm told is that chile will not set fruit at higher than 90
degrees. Our house has regularly been 110 degrees this summer. I have to
admit, I haven't noticed that the fruit set has COMPLETELY been stopped at
any point.

I'm outside of Washington DC
