Where to plant my peppers?

I have a small greenhouse, and a new, large polytunnel. The polytunnel is not transparent, it has a green weave so it's pretty shaded.

Should I plant my peppers with the tomatoes in the polytunnel, or should I put them in the greenhouse?

Thanks, Lottie

They do fine in large pots - but if you're growing a variety that's prone to botrytis go for the greenhouse, because of the lower humidity.

Hi there Lottie, welcome to the forum. :wave:

I would recommend you plant your peppers in the greenhouse too, as peppers need higher temperatures and sunshine to grow well.
They are slow growers at the best of times, so pampering them a bit is not a bad idea.
