Fortunately, hot peppers will continue producing, even in the hottest, most humid part of the Florida Summer.If your soil is sandy and loamy, add some organic matter, compost, or gardening soil to encourage more vigorous growth. Make sure that the soil is well-drained.The “heat” flavor of peppers is measured in Scoville Units. To give you an idea, Green Bell Peppers, rank at 0 Scoville Units, or “no heat”.
