In the Piedmont area of NC, we tend to have more problems with disease, animals, and water issues, (lately drought) than other things.

We have pretty high heat in the Summer, but most peppers seem to love that, at least for plant growth. What usually happens in my area is that they set fruit early, slow down or stop in the heat of the summer, then start again in the Fall. Sunscald is often an issue, especially with large peppers, like bells.

Greensboro, where tlcmd is, may be a touch cooler than where I am or have some different challenges. But most are probably similar.
