Growing chilies in Palm Springs area

2 months ago

I recently moved to Palm Springs from Los Angeles, and I'm afraid now I will not be able to grow chilies because of the heat. We can many days that are well over 110°, and the jalapeño and Habanero chili plants that I bought at Home Depot are withering, even though I water them three times a day.

I have some chocolate Habanero plants that I bought on line and transplanted into smallish pots that I've been growing in my kitchen window, which gets a lot of morning sun. Am I going to be forced to leaving these plants indoors? I put them outside yesterday because it had cooled down to 105°, and they seem okay for now, but what if it gets to 115°?
