    sun I only have direct sun up till about 1pm

    All my plants stop in temps above 100. Thats OK, I understand that one. The problem I don't understand is that for the months before and after summer when temps are 70 I get flowers, but no fruit, on the more esoteric plants.   I will try both the plants your suggest.

    capsaicin Capsaicinoids %'s and various pepper strains

    So after 3 years of growing all sorts of varieties of hot chillies I have noticed some interesting differences in the burn you experence.

    Indeed I tried that too. I even used distilled water on one set. Same thing. My starting nute stuff is a combo of a number of things. Some Chilli Focus and some Bat Guano ( P ). Just a tiny bit of each. This has proved way better then no nutes. All my seeds start in a week or less using this...
