Annum start times

[Diabolus]

Here where I am in Southern Ontario, Canada usually the danger of frost ends around May 24. Now I have already started my chinense and superhots. They're just starting to germinate now. But I'm wondering if it's possible to start Annums too early. Usually the rule is 8-10 weeks before last frost.

What happens if I start them now. (I'm really excited and anxious)

Will they just start to fruit earlier or could this be detrimental to the plant?

As long as you have room to keep them warm and give them light, it won't hurt them.

Last year I had a few nice plants of Red Habs and Red Scotch Bonnets. They turned out pretty good but I started them in March and they barely ripened in time. (Almost October)

This year I'm starting way earlier and I'm attempting:

Tepin
Fatali
Burkina
Bih Jolokia
Hot Papaer Lantern
Datil

Sowed seeds about a week ago and only a Tepin has sprouted so far.
