Hello Everyone,
This is my first time growing peppers. I currently have started seedlings 3 weeks ago and plan on transplanting them outdoors (end of april-early may). I have 3 varieties of Chinense (mustard habs, scotch, & Carib Reds).
My concern is that night temps will be too low during the spring/summer, leading to flower drop and no fruit produced.
Looking at monthly avgs, the lows at night never really get above 60 degrees.

Does anyone come from surrounding area who has success in growing hot peppers in the area?
If so, what would be the best solutions to ensure any sort of yield.
Thanks!
