Greenhouse temps are tough from now through summer. I will be moving my tropical plants out soon. I am preparing the area to set them.
As I said above I use raised beds for vegetables. The beds are small ~ 3x6. Last year I planted an assortment of pepper plants in one bed. They grew up close together and produced well. I think the difference between mine and Kittrianas' pepper experiences is that mine are in full afternoon sun. I'm thinking she has more shade. I found that packing the peppers closely in the bed provided the needed shade. A few peppers exposed to the evening sun were scalded. That was when I put up shade cloth. I had read that pepper plants like to stand shoulder to shoulder so was inspired to try it. I will do so again this year.
I think the bottom line is you will learn by trial and error as to what works for you
@Dalorean.
I have only started my maters so far ~ two dozen. I don't get in a hurry to start the peppers as they languish till the ground and air temps suit them. They will produce all through summer for me. I also have started some herbs. I will start some cucumbers later but they grow quickly so am not pressured.
I would normally be rooting sweet potato sets but wanted a smaller plant that will be suited for the raised beds so have ordered the starts.
I do still have a bed of snow peas, one of garlic/onions, one with lettuce, chard and mustard so not hurried on the seed starting. That takes the edge off of the spring fever.
