Climate
Seed Production of O.P. Pepper Lines

night temperature
Peppers grow best in the dry season with temperatures in the range 18–27ºC for sweet peppers, 21–33ºC for chili peppers.

The night temperature is especially critical in seed production. Generally, peppers will not set fruits if night temperatures remain above 24ºC (for sweet peppers) or above 30ºC (for chili peppers).
