Bell Pepper Soil Temp

[Christian1971]

Besides soil warmth for improved germination, are you supposed to keep soil warm while plant is growing indoors? Or just for germination like tomatoes?

Yes, try to keep the soil as warm as possible. Peppers, such as Bell peppers are very healthy when grown in warm environment. They wilt when in cold climates.

I think peppier seedlings grow best around 72-76°F warmer grow faster but too warm can result in weak growth prone to sucking pests. Also air movement/fan is crucial. Put them outside a little at a time when air temp is warm enough to toughen them up.
