I started some Habenero peppers about 2 weeks ago..give or take a day. They have sprouted and seem to be doing ok in the garage under shop lights(2/40watters) I chopped up one of my tomato plants after my gutter fell directly on it last week...so I have a lil bit of room. Any thoughts on whether I should take a chance with the peppers outside now? Its early July, Im living in "tha CHI".  For the next 7-10 days its supposed to be high 80's/low 90's out there. Seems a lil late to be planting IMO, but I'm a  My bell and jalepeno's are just showing their fruits. Inside with flo's or give em some rays  | ||

| Take them out to the big eye in the sky. You may want to place them in a semi-shaded, filtered sunlight area for the first day or two. That will give them a chance to get acclimated to their outdoor home. Peppers love full sun.  | ||

This is my third attempt at growing em. So far so good. I have two jalapinos one finger hot and one habenero on the go. Like buzz said..they like direct full sun. The dryer the air the better. A hot dry climate will help produce muy caliente peppers. | ||
