I grow New Mex, paprika, hots and some super hots and my pepper season does not really kick into high gear until September/October. This is despite an early indoor start.

This still surprises me since I keep hearing peppers love hot weather. All the varieties I have grown to date just put out a lot of healthy greenery during the hotter months, but don’t go into major production mode until temps start dropping.

Aleppo and was this year’s prime example. I had three healthy plants that only had one pepper between them until about three weeks ago. Now all three plants are loaded with peppers, but I don’t know if the weather will hold long enough for them to mature to red.
