Peppers take a bit longer than tomatoes to get going, so I start them first. They like it warm, and a bit dryer than tomatoes. You can transplant leggy ones deeper, but they don't root much along the buried stem like tomatoes do, but they don't mind it. Don't let them get cold; they'll sulk for days after a chill. And transplant them closer together than tomatoes. They like rubbing shoulders. Mine need support, though not as much as tomatoes.
